My greatest challenge when I applied to business school: Having confidence in preparing for the interview and the GMAT, and deciding which school to choose after receiving several offers.
About me: Before joining LBS, I studied Business Administration at EDHEC Business School in the south of France. During my undergraduate studies, I spent a semester at the University of Ottawa, an experience that inspired me to pursue my masters degree abroad.
I have gained professional experience in finance and management through internships in Paris and Monaco. These opportunities helped me strengthen my analytical skills and develop an interest in strategy and problem solving. After LBS, my goal is to build an international career in consulting, with a focus on projects in the sports industry or social impact.
Outside of academics and work, I am deeply passionate about sports. I practised acrobatic gymnastics for 10 years before moving into running and swimming. I completed my first marathon this year in Geneva. I also enjoy volunteering at major sporting events and was fortunate to be part of the Paris 2024 Olympics. Beyond sport, I love reading, travelling and exploring new cultures.
Three topics I can be approached about: Experience at LBS; application process; life in London.
