Biography

 I've been a trainee office manager at Mikron GmbH Rottweil for almost a year now. Even though I was only in the first year of my apprenticeship, my training organization made it possible for me to spend four weeks in London. The language course and the company internship were organized by the vocational college and funded by the Erasmus+ vocational training program. Mikron's support enabled me to successfully complete my stay in London under the Vocational and Professional Education and Training Act, which meant that my training was not interrupted and I could continue to receive my training salary.

Research Interest

 I completed the internship at "iam immigration and migration", a company which operates internationally. The first week wasn't easy for me-I had to try out a lot of things and learn a lot by myself. In the last two weeks I was able to produce social media videos and animations for advertising purposes and also design a website, which was a lot of fun. I would definitely and wholeheartedly recommend the international internship. Anyone who is given a chance like this should take it because it broadens your horizons, improves your language skills and increases your self-confidence when you're left on your own in a foreign country.
