Kant.-Ref.-Nr.
= ZH 1138873
Languages: English Written

German Written and Spoken: Good
French Written and Spoken: Adequate
Interests: I have an intense interest in the integration of
information technology tools within a working environment. This includes the problem solving which is
inevitable when IT is introduced to personnel without prior experience.
I
also have an interest in managing human resources. This can be on a small scale, such as the several events I have
helped coordinate, or on a larger scale as is present within most large
organizations.
Future Plans: I am in the final year of a three-year joint
honours course in Computer and Business Studies at the University of
Warwick. After sufficient experience I
intend to expand my horizons by extending my training through further training
courses such as MCSEs or an MBA course.
