During my studies, I had the privilege of participating in a study exchange program at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, which broadened my understanding of global markets and the importance of cultural diversity in the business world. In addition to my academic achievements, I have gained practical experience through previous internships in the area of supply chain finance at the Unicredit Group, specifically at Bank Austria and FactorBank. In these roles, I utilized my strong analytical skills and proficiency in MS Excel and PowerPoint to support the team in managing risk and optimizing financial operations. These experiences have enhanced my ability to work in a fast-paced and results-driven environment, and I am eager to apply these skills to the role of Praktikum Portfolio Management at LGT Bank AG.

I am confident that I would thrive in a collaborative and fast-paced environment such as LGT Bank AG, and I am committed to making a valuable contribution to the team. Furthermore, I am fluent in multiple languages, including German, English, Mandarin, French, Latin, and Shanghainese. These language abilities have not only allowed me to communicate effectively with a diverse range of individuals, but they have also enhanced my cultural awareness and adaptability. As a service-oriented individual, I place a strong emphasis on building relationships and providing excellent customer service, making me an ideal fit for the Praktikum Portfolio Management role. While I am open to opportunities in various locations, I must admit that Vienna is a city that I have always been fascinated by. The rich culture, history, and thriving business environment make it an ideal location for me to further my career. Therefore, I would be honored to have the opportunity to contribute to LGT Bank AG's success in Vienna.
