What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that offers growth opportunities in financial analysis and data-driven decision-making within a collaborative environment.

As a dedicated B.Sc. Economics student at the University of Graz, I have a strong foundation in financial analysis and quantitative research. My recent internship at Attrax Financial Services S.A. in Luxembourg allowed me to enhance due diligence processes, achieving a 12% increase in success rates through meticulous investigations. I also gained valuable experience in the research team, focusing on quantitative analysis and applying qualitative overlay methods.

In addition to my academic pursuits, I have honed my skills in strategic purchasing during my student job at IU International College, where I utilized online databases and analytical tools like Power BI and Excel to identify cost-effective sourcing options. My extracurricular activities, including leadership roles in voluntary associations and participation in international projects, have further developed my organizational and communication skills, enabling me to lead initiatives that foster collaboration with industry leaders.
