Tell us a fun fact about yourself
I am Greek and Japanese, but rather than speaking those languages, I can speak Italian and Chinese instead!
What are you looking forward to most about arriving on campus?
I’m looking forward to seeing my classmates who come from every corner of the globe. I know that we will all learn and grow from each other during our Hult experience—we will become a family over the next three years!
Why do you want to study business?
I want to study business because I feel that the world is changing every day, and enterprises are at the forefront of the decisions that determine our future. I want to learn alongside individuals who are ambitious, and those who will continue striving forward, even when being challenged.
How did you know that Hult was the right school for you?
Being a Hultian, I know that I will gain the necessary skills for business, but I’ll also learn how to be successful in life outside of work. I have never seen a school that has the same approach as Hult, and this is how I knew that it was the right school for me.
“I will be joining the Global Generation, and I know that this comes with much responsibility. As Hult students, we must work together and not see at each other as competition, but as partners!”

What will you be bringing to Hult with you to remind you of home?

The Global Generation is a generation of travelers that are ready to pack their stuff and start a new life, far away from their comfort zone. It is a generation of people who are able to feel at home everywhere, and who learn from new cultures and new experiences.
