Vice President of Projects at Liga Studentilor Romani din Strainatate
Allentown, Pennsylvania Area
I am an energetic, high-achieving and determined person looking for a summer internship in an international corporation.
The challenge of new and interesting projects through which I can gain both broad and specific knowledge will keep me motivated. I am conscientious about meeting deadlines and completing tasks unsupervised. Math has always been a valuable strength and programming has helped me develop a structured way of thinking.
The many and diverse activities I have taken part in have taught me to manage my time efficiently, cope with multiple tasks and develop plans to achieve the goals of the project. My international experience has determined me to easily adapt to new conditions and to quickly learn new skills and absorb knowledge.
Through my academic work, I have also developed strong communication and presentation abilities as well as good team work practices. Exercising leadership has become a a valuable skill for me that I often use in my project and my work with teams.
