Being a member of Junior Academy of Sciences, I participated in various debates, conferences, which helped me to develop my communication and presentation skills. Engagement 180 Degrees Consulting Riga has strengthened my teamwork and time management skills. In addition, I was Under Secretary General for Facilitating Activities. Our team organized international conference for students. For example, LVMUN 2015 gathered 150 participants and was held for three days.

From an academic perspective, my interest in analysis has begun already from high school. There, I conducted the research in Macroeconomics on the topic of new regulations of local taxation.

My interest in Finance is not limited to a university curriculum. Recently, I won the 2nd place in Finance Challenge international competition. In addition, I had a chance to master my skills in STATA and R during the elective course.
