What I'm looking for

I am looking for an internship that offers mentorship, hands-on experience, and opportunities for growth in financial advisory.

I am a motivated and detail-oriented final-year Financial Mathematics student eager to gain hands-on experience as a Financial Advisor intern. My strong analytical skills and knowledge of financial products empower me to assist clients in achieving their long-term financial goals. I am committed to learning from experienced professionals while contributing to a high-performing advisory team.

During my internship at NCBC, I assisted in analyzing financial data and performance metrics to support decision-making. I have experience in preparing budgets, variance analysis, and forecasting future financial performance. My academic achievements include winning the Best Research Project award at the University of Namibia for my work on modeling auto insurance claims using machine learning techniques.

I am passionate about financial analysis and client relationship management, and I look forward to applying my skills in a dynamic environment where I can grow and make a meaningful impact.
