MADELINE O'BRIEN
PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY
My name is Maddie O'Brien, and I am currently pursuing a degree in International Business with Spanish at Queen's University Belfast in the UK. Over the past year, my coursework and project experience have provided me with a solid foundation in marketing and economics, and sparked a growing interest in data analysis and business operations. I am actively seeking internship opportunities that will allow me to further develop my skills in marketing, business analysis, and operational strategy within a real-world business setting.
My studies at Queen’s have helped me become highly detail-oriented and organized, particularly in managing time and competing priorities. I take pride in planning ahead and working efficiently to meet deadlines. Through collaborative academic projects, I have also strengthened my communication and teamwork abilities—skills I genuinely enjoy applying in business- focused settings. I’m a fast learner and adaptable which allows me to thrive in fast-paced work environments and stay focused under pressure. Over the past year, I have actively cultivated these competencies, and I’m now eager to apply and expand them through hands-on experience.
I’m open to a wide range of internship or job opportunities and would be grateful for the chance to connect. Please feel free to reach out via text or email!
