My work at Wikimedia Foundation

I am one of the four WMF Finance Fellows. Our current project focuses on the development of metrics to make data more consistent and comparable across the affiliated organizations and community. My main tasks include analyzing financial statements from affiliated organizations around the world. Therefore, I will communicate regurarly with the affiliated organizations and community.

Previous working experience

My previous working experience was in HR/Internal communication and Sales. As an HR intern, I worked for D.E Master Blenders, a multinational coffee and tea producer, and my main responsibilities included recruiting and onboarding Marketing & Sales profiles, optimizing HR processes and writing/publishing the weekly news/moves/flash. My sales experience includes the cold selling of warrantees for the French car brand Peugot.

About Me

I recently graduated from university. I have a Master in Applied Economics and a Master in Business Communication.

I work for or provide services to the Wikimedia Foundation, and this is the account I try to use for edits or statements I make in that role. However, the Foundation does not vet all my activity, and edits, statements, or other contributions made by this account may not reflect the views of the Foundation.
