I believe you need to get uncomfortable and continuously challenge yourself in order to grow. As a result, I am an adventurous, highly motivated and genuinely positive person!

My decision to move to Europe and further my education through CEMS has resulted in my most valuable experience to date. The opportunity to travel, interact, work with people of all different backgrounds and develop my interpersonal skills.

The CEMS MIM program has allowed me to develop into a well rounded person, combining my interpersonal skills and teamwork ability from management education with strong problem solving skills and technical expertise in engineering and finance.
