What is your previous work experience, if any? Please describe briefly.
During my undergraduate studies, I interned in both public and private sectors. Most recently, I worked at SGS as a carbon & energy consultant, assisting high-emission companies in transitioning to greener practices. This internship gave me insights into the common challenges faced by high-emission companies. A significant issue was balancing corporate profits with social responsibility, as many companies viewed ESG initiatives as costly challenges.
