Global BBA Student

Paris, Île-de-FranceActively looking

I am a Global BBA student at ESSEC Business School, ranked in the top 13% of my cohort with a 15.7/20 GPA, and I have complemented my studies with an Innovation Management Program at UC Berkeley Extension, where I earned a 3.9/4.0 GPA. My academic interests span financial markets, private equity, entrepreneurship, innovation, and business strategy, supported by international experience in France, Singapore, and the United States. I have underwritten a $6.5M multifamily real estate acquisition, analyzing rent rolls, renovation capex, debt constraints, and leveraged returns. I also founded and independently developed IRIS, a full-stack indie film discovery platform, and completed financial analysis, product innovation, and go-to-market projects for companies including Sanofi, GSK, and L'Oréal. I bring an analytical, entrepreneurial, and globally minded approach, along with strong communication skills developed through client advising, English teaching, fundraising, and international teamwork. I am fluent in French and English and enjoy combining finance, technology, creativity, and consumer insight to develop practical business solutions.

Real Estate Private Equity Intern

Project Destined

Jun 2026 – Jul 2026

RemoteInternship

I underwrote a 28-unit, $6.5M multifamily acquisition with $445K in renovation capital expenditure, building a unit-level rent roll and 10-year hold model. I sized debt against LTV, debt yield, and DSCR constraints, selecting $3.06M of debt at 46% LTC and 1.50x DSCR. The analysis produced a 13.2% levered IRR and 3.2x equity multiple versus 10.6% unlevered.

Jan 2026 – Apr 2026

Freelance

I built and shipped a full-stack indie film discovery web application using Next.js, Supabase, Python, and the TMDb and OMDb APIs, deploying it on Vercel. I sized a $10–12B gap in indie film distribution within an estimated $17–20B total addressable market and pitched a three-phase business model to faculty.

International Business Case Competition

L’Oréal Brandstorm 2025

Feb 2025 – Apr 2025

Part time

I developed a dissolvable microneedle beard-care mask for L’Oréal’s Men’s Beauty & Care “Game On” brief as part of a three-person team. I conducted consumer research on beard-care pain points, evaluated biodegradable materials including chitosan, hyaluronic acid, and PLA, and built a go-to-market and feasibility case. I leveraged L’Oréal’s existing sheet-mask and microneedle patch technologies to support reduced development cost and time to market.
