Adam Pieniazek’s Summary
Though I've primarily studied business, with a focus on accounting and finance, my interests are varied and continuously growing. For the past year, I've worked at The 42nd Estate, helping run the business and contributing my writing and consulting skills on a freelance basis.
Before then, I worked in State Street's Global Services department, planning and setting up recently acquired client accounts for conversion onto State Street's books. I've previously worked in sales and technical support, as well as other miscellaneous jobs.
I don't mind getting my hands dirty, but am also quite able to see the big picture and contribute where my help is needed. I enjoy learning new ideas, theories, and practices and implementing them in my personal and professional life.
