About me
I am a postgraduate marketing student and I want to succeed in the field I am passionate about: Advertising and Communication. I find working in this area a way of expressing myself, my creativity and my imagination. It gives me the chance to see the world from another perspective as it has the power to create aspects of reality in a format and manner of your choice. My cheerful character and my positive thinking help me accept the everyday challenges with an open mind and a big smile. I can work in a really fast paced environment as I am flexible and able to work extremely fast and efficiently. I am really interested in working for a successful communication agency, which will help me achieve the career I dream, and as a very ambitious person I will fight to achieve my goals.
