Description
What motivates me the most in any situation of life is the challenge of understanding different individuals from various cultural backgrounds and within different settings.
As a person with two very different cultural backgrounds (German & Nigerian), I grew up facing the Clash of Civilizations first hand. Ever since, I had been enjoying playing sports (football, basketball, beach volleyball), going to university and working in companies of various industries with many different teams and exciting people!
In the best case I could follow this interest even better by exploring my and other people's personalities by speaking in different languages.
Growing up speaking German and English helped me in the process of becoming fluent in other languages; such as the beautiful Spanish which opens the door to a huge world of exciting culturas, tradiciones, humores, chismes, albures (en México), fiestas, comida y bebidas ricas.
Espero que lo pasemos bién junto en el futuro! :)

More details about your skills
My working experience is composed of a wide range of organisations of different sizes, cultures and industries. Therefore, my overall strength is a very high flexibility and reliability within different roles and tasks.
I have gained experience in open communication, sales and customer care in early years by working at:
1) A delicacies store for cheese, olives etc. (3 Months)
2) A Nike Store (2 years)
3) A Festival at the bar (1 week)
4) A beverage market helping clients carry heavy packets of drinks (3 months)

6) A logistics center working night shifts (2 months)
7) An innovation consulting firm developing and selling projects (5 months)
8) A construction site (2 months)
9) Casa en el Agua, San Bernardo Islands, Colombia (1 month)
All these side-jobs demonstrate my ability to adapt to any kind of working environments and (physical/mental) task. From heavy lifting and long night shifts to customer care.
The core of my past experience is formed by my studies in Industrial Engineering and Management (B.Eng. & M.Sc.; Specializazion in Sustainability and Production Management). Several more internships have been part of my experience in working with different people, perspectives and kinds of communication:
1) Project Management at a sports car manufacturer (6 months)

3) Digitalization Project at a aviation parts manufacturer (5 months)
4) Cooperation Management at a aviation company (11 months)

The amaount of many different experiences might not directly relate to your specific project, however, it should demonstrate my high flexibility, openness to new people and tasks, as well as ability to adapt very fast to new projects!
