Student, Volunteer, and Public Speaker in Francia

People always talk about their virtues. I prefer to talk about my defects, just because I want you to know that with my defects I learn and improve like a person.

I’m stubborn, ambitious, direct, sincere and honest.

- Stubborn - Ambitious: All my life I have fought to achieve my goals such as being the first person in my family to obtain a double degree abroad.

- Direct – Sincere: this can be defects or virtues; it depends on who you might ask. Every time that I have something to say, I search the best ways to explain my point of view and I have the capacity to accept others’ opinion. I always work to find the Best Alternative to a Negotiated Agreement.

- Honesty is one value that has been lost. However, I keep it as a value that drives all my actions, not only in my personal but also in my professional life.

I come to make a difference, not to be unnoticed in the life. And if we work together we will strengthen ourselves and we will reach our goals because perseverance is one of the most important attitudes in life.

As an international student I have the experience to adapt quickly to different environments and I have developed good interpersonal skills. And I have the opportunity to know others’ cultures and internalize it. This gives me tools to improve my negotiation skills looking to the future.
