Aspiring business professional with experience in market analysis and leadership.
ZimbabweWhat I'm looking for
I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Business Management at King's College London, where I have developed a strong foundation in business principles and social sciences. My academic journey has been complemented by hands-on experience as a Student Ambassador, where I engage with prospective students and provide insights into university life, enhancing their transition into higher education.
During my internships at Swiss Lanka Commodities and hSenid Mobile Solutions, I gained valuable exposure to the trading of commodities and the HR tech landscape. My roles involved conducting market research, analyzing trade activities, and presenting strategic recommendations, which honed my analytical and strategic thinking skills. I am passionate about leveraging my knowledge and experiences to contribute to innovative business solutions.
In addition to my academic and professional pursuits, I have actively participated in extracurricular activities, including the Interact Club of Colombo, where I engaged in community service initiatives. These experiences have instilled in me a strong sense of social responsibility and leadership, which I aim to carry forward into my future career.
