From May to June 2026, I studied abroad at the American University of Rome, where I had the opportunity to explore advertising, public relations, and communication from an international perspective. The program concluded with a week at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, where I attended sessions led by some of the industry's most influential creative leaders and explored award-winning work from around the world.

This experience broadened my perspective on the future of advertising and strengthened my understanding of the evolving creative industry. Learning about emerging technologies, global consumer behavior, strategic thinking, and the growing role of creativity in business challenged me to think beyond traditional approaches and prepared me to bring a more informed, adaptable, and globally minded perspective to future internships and professional opportunities.
