      Master industrial relations and human resources 1,1

      Having studied psychology until now has been a great start into my academic life. But during building up a NGO in Germany and an economical women-empowerment project in Togo, I felt that my education was still lacking crucial knowledge about business and perspectives from human resources. That is why I have done an exchange semester at the University of Toronto. I was able to take a dive into Strategic HRM, HR Consulting and Business Strategy for HR.

      International volunteer

      After highschool, I did a one year voluntary service at two radio stations in Togo. I was responsible for the midday news and I conducted several radio plays and broadcasts about scientific phenomena. I lived in an orphanage run by the NGO International Volontaire en Action (IVA). This is how I found my why to found an NGO in Germany to support the children from the orphanage. Having done this year in Togo enriched my perspective on the world and strengthened my dedication to give back and to empower. Show less
