What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic corporate finance role that fosters growth and innovation.

I'm a dedicated finance professional with a strong academic background, holding a Master's in Management from Audencia Business School, where I ranked in the top 15% of my class. My focus on Corporate Finance and Consulting has equipped me with the skills necessary to excel in financial analysis and strategic management. I graduated with honors, reflecting my commitment to excellence and my passion for finance.

Throughout my internships, I have gained valuable experience in M&A and transaction services, conducting market research, financial analysis, and developing business cases for investment opportunities across various regions. My role at Forvis Mazars allowed me to collaborate with senior partners and contribute to significant projects, including drafting memorandums and analyzing financial statements. I have a proven track record of delivering insightful financial valuations and supporting strategic decision-making for clients.

In addition to my technical skills, I am fluent in multiple languages and have a strong command of financial tools such as Excel, PowerPoint, and CapitalIQ. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to contribute to impactful financial projects and am eager to take on a permanent position in corporate finance starting January 2025.
