About

I am a third-year student pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Financial Economics and Management from the University of St Andrews. My background at the French American School of Puget Sound and studies across two global universities have strengthened my analytical mindset and cross-cultural perspective. I’m passionate about applying economic analysis and strategic thinking to solve complex business challenges—particularly in consulting, finance, and high-fashion in international markets.
