Self-Confidence, Adaptability
By actively engaging in experiences that pushed me out of my comfort zone, I gained valuable confidence that now enables me to tackle new challenges with assurance. This ability to explore new horizons has proven crucial, both for collaborating within multidisciplinary teams and for adapting to sociopolitical environments different from those in Quebec. My professional identity was strengthened throughout my stay in Geneva, where I was able to clearly define my goals and work proactively towards achieving them. This experience offered me unique opportunities to develop leadership skills, particularly by collaborating with professionals from diverse cultures, which significantly enriched my ability to understand and interact effectively in international contexts. Additionally, I established strong connections in Geneva that could prove valuable for my future career.
I have lived to over six cities, which has made me incredibly adaptable and allowed me to quickly adjust to various environments and cultures. Aviation Enthusiast: I was a member of the Air Cadets, where I not only learned the fundamentals of aviation but also developed skills in leadership, survival, and discipline while exploring the fascinating world of aerospace.
