My greatest challenge when I applied to business school: The pressure of handling multiple tasks at the same time.
About me: I graduated with first class honours in Business Management with Marketing from Bayes Business School. My professional journey has been shaped by consulting internships where I honed my analytical and problem-solving skills. However, my true passion lies in finance, particularly investment banking, with a focus on mergers and acquisitions (M&A).
I chose LBS for the unparalleled networking opportunities and the chance to work with professors who not only have strong academic credentials but also bring real-world professional experience into the classroom. LBS’s vibrant community and global connections will help me secure a fantastic role in investment banking.
Beyond academics, I’ve gained leadership experience working at an NGO in Lebanon and running my own brand, which gave me hands-on exposure to entrepreneurship and social media strategy.
I’m excited to leverage the skills, knowledge and connections from LBS to build a successful career in finance.
Three topics I can be approached for: Social media; why I chose LBS; financial knowledge.
