What I'm looking for

I seek a role leveraging linguistics and business experience—preferably in management trainee, business development, or operations—within a collaborative, growth-oriented company offering cross-functional exposure.

I am a detail-oriented linguistics postgraduate with internship experience at Tencent and Huawei, combining language expertise with business acumen.

I graduated with honors in French Language and Literature and am completing an MA in Linguistics at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, focusing on translation theory, corpus linguistics, and cross-cultural communication.

During internships I conducted market research, identified prospects, analyzed customer feedback, coordinated events, and supported process improvements that increased client acquisition and departmental efficiency.

I led the Student Union as President, setting strategic direction, managing large teams and events, and championing initiatives to improve student welfare—demonstrating leadership, project management, and cross-functional collaboration.
