I spent my childhood in several different countries. When it was time to choose a career, I looked for the diversity I was accustomed to. This is precisely what attracted me to consulting and to BCG. I have not been disappointed; the firm has offered me unparalleled opportunities and the chance to develop a very wide skill set across multiple industries. Since I joined in 2005, I have worked on financial services and energy cases, as well as with NGOs.
Looking back at my time with BCG, a number of cases spring to mind, but the most memorable would probably be one of my first cases, with an oil and gas client. I found the work immensely exciting and varied as I was involved in both a post-merger integration and a project to improve the client’s upstream operations. In a typical day I would have a one-on-one meeting with a senior manager – exciting and challenging for a new consultant – and also visit drilling equipment facilities. This is what makes BCG so great – consultants face exciting challenges and learn something new everyday.
By far the best things about BCG are the people and the environment. I have learned a great deal from my colleagues, who make me feel very much part of the team and give me all the support I need.
In my spare time, I like to read, travel, and play all kinds of sports, including basketball and tennis. |
