Why I am available as a mentor for the MCI Mentoring Program

During my studies I have benefitted a lot from my mentor. As I have been working for a couple of years now I want to share my knowledge and expertise with future professionals.

My wisdom/my motto

It's a good day to have a good day.

When I look back at my time at MCI...

I loved every bit of it. We had a great group of students and great teachers. MCI felt more practical based than some of the other universities I have studied at. Also I very much enjoyed the nature, mountains and atmosphere in Innsbruck.
