I am a recent cand.merc.int graduate, Danish and half Ecuadorian with an interest in the interplay between international trade and economic development, focusing on developing countries and emerging markets, especially Latin America. In addition, I find cultural differences, relationships and foreign languages particularly exciting, as in my optics it contributes to greater understanding in trade and to better outcomes for all parties involved.
