Cluj-Napoca
Summary
As a former tennis player and a recent graduate from both law and business school, I am eager to launch a career that combines my greatest passions: sports and law. With a strong foundation in legal knowledge obtained from the University of Manchester and a master's degree from ISDE, I am driven to apply my expertise to assist those in need, particularly athletes.
I am highly organized and disciplined, believing that excellence comes from hard work and the willingness to make sacrifices. My life motto, "take the risk or lose the chance," has guided me through many successful endeavors. I thrive under pressure, consistently meeting deadlines, and enjoy collaborative teamwork.
Having traveled extensively for tennis tournaments and studied law abroad in the UK, I am adept at social interactions and can easily integrate into diverse social circles. My unique blend of sports experience and legal education positions me well to make a significant impact in the field of sports law.
