What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic legal internship where I can apply my skills and grow.

I am a highly motivated law student at the University of Amsterdam, currently pursuing an LLM in Trade and Investment Law. My academic journey has equipped me with a global perspective and a strong foundation in various legal disciplines, including International Investment Law and Arbitration. I have demonstrated my commitment to legal excellence by being a finalist in the Frits Kalshoven Moot Court 2024 and completing a thesis focused on investment protection in annexed territories, particularly concerning Ukrainian investors impacted by Russian actions.

In addition to my academic achievements, I have gained practical experience as a Legal Trainee at Schoeller Allibert in Amsterdam, where I supported lawyers in researching and drafting contracts, enhancing my legal research and communication skills. My role as a Language Consultant for Appen AI further honed my analytical abilities and attention to detail while working remotely across multiple languages. I am eager to leverage my international experience and legal knowledge in a challenging internship or entry-level position that allows me to contribute meaningfully while continuing to grow professionally.
