About Me
Currently, I am a CEMS/International Business student at UCD and NUS. I have an economics background as I did my undergraduate degree in economics at the University of Munich. Furthermore, I also managed and owned a restaurant with 160 seating places for nearly five years. At the moment, I try to improve my coding skills by learning the programming language R to prepare me for the challenges of the 21th century.
