Business is what makes the world go round. Understanding Business to me is of incredible importance and I find it just extremely interesting and rewarding. Whenever I see a barber shop or a dance school I imagine how you could streamline the processes, grow the business and innovate its business model. It excites me to think about those things and learn about the world of business.

I was always fascinated with big structures, buildings and designs. So I decided to pursue architecture at first. But during the first semester I felt like I wasn't feeding my passion for analytical and critical thinking but rather the major was leaning towards art. So this is where I decided to switch for civil engineering. It was a major shift in terms of the actual major and going from a french education to english education but I excelled in both and I graduated with high distinction.

I initially chose Civil engineering because I was interested to learn how math and physics can be applied in Construction. During the last year of my studies I got interested in impact of contaminants on human health so i chose to pursue a Master abroad to specialise in environmental remediation methods and in this context I chose my PhD.  Through consulting i believe that my work can have the impact I would like to make for global health and the environment, as well as other fields that I got interested during my studies and internships like digital tools. I would like to contribute to more effecient processes with digital transformation.

young attorney looking for a career in consulting

when I was young I knew I wanted to become a lawyer to work and protect weaker groups in society. I wanted to be a public servant or politician and I thought that law school was the best way to get there. I will add that my perspective has changed throughout my studies and later in my career. 

plus, it can be both a profession-oriented and a general degree, which opens many doors

Comprehensiveness of Business: encompasses all different things - culture, economy, law - most versatile way of leveraging knowledge

Analytical + Qualitative Combination: being results-oriented - theoretical cases interest me far less than actually changing/building something

Attitudes: driven, eager to learn

In order to be able to play a role in changing the world for the better, and I believe looking at the overall picture, consulting tends to look at startegies and analyses in the aim of improving and streamlining existing/traditional processes for the better
