"I had the opportunity and honor of completing my second-year internship at the Senate. This highly rewarding experience allowed me to work alongside a committed senator and strengthened my desire to work for the public good. I was responsible for various pieces of legislation and was able to learn about the many facets of the job of a parliamentary assistant. It was an extraordinary experience that I highly recommend!"

I then found a job as a space consultant at PWC. The team I work in carries out studies for the European Commission to optimize EU investments in the European space sector. Together with experts, we try to address issues relating to the European internal market, how to stimulate demand, create a competitive sector, etc."
