FeaturedAbout Candidate
Nature and technology enthusiast with a passion for design.
While mechanical engineering and nature can often clash on many fronts, I am enthusiastic about both. Ideally, I aim to harness my passion for mechanical engineering to create sustainable solutions. My minor in data analysis helps expand and apply my technical skills in this context.
I combine my studies with a part-time job as a crew member at McDonald’s. I also gained valuable experience during engaging internships at Always Right Tooling and LAN Handling Technologies. This has sharpened my organizational skills and taught me that teamwork and customer-focus are the keys to delivering excellent results. At LAN Handling Technologies, I had the privilege of designing an industrial turntable, further igniting my interest in mechanics.
Apart from my studies and work, I enjoy investing time in my other hobbies, such as gaming, the gym, health, trivia, and movies. People describe me as humorous, friendly, intelligent, and socially skilled. I appreciate their kind words.
As a future mechanical engineer (hopefully in Sweden), I am determined to make the world a better place, and innovative design remains the most enjoyable path for me to achieve that goal.
