Hesham Akif

An Egyptian college student, currently in my Junior year and studying Marketing at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Ever since I was in high school, I found myself very involved and engaged in Business classes. I guess I have always been eager to gaining insights into what goes behind producing/marketing of any product that I see in the store or on TV, and that is why I decided to choose it as a major. Speaking of my field of interest, I am planning to focus on clothing/retail marketing as a career, as it aligns with my interests, passions, and values. Although I don't have much relative experience, it is still a career that I see myself adaptive and successful in. I am a hard worker, creative, and a careful person who never takes learning and experience opportunities for granted. And I continually seek out new ways to develop, flourish, and meet new people! I hope to land my first internship in Marketing, regardless of the company's business portfolio. Gallup Top 5 Strengths: Consistency | Empathy | Responsibility | Ideation | Focus
