What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to apply my finance knowledge in a collaborative environment, focusing on sustainability and impactful projects.

I am a dedicated Finance and Economics student at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, set to graduate in August 2025. My academic journey has equipped me with a robust understanding of financial principles and economic theories, which I apply in practical settings. I have a strong commitment to the projects I engage in, whether through university assignments, teaching assistant roles, or internships.

My recent internship at Santander Bank allowed me to work in the ESG department, where I contributed to defining KPIs for non-profit organizations and researched energy and mining projects. Additionally, my experience as a Teacher Assistant has honed my analytical skills, enabling me to assess business strategies and marketing fundamentals effectively. I believe in the power of teamwork and transparency, which I consider essential for fostering trust and achieving collective goals.
