Cecilie Bak

Currently, I am pursuing my bachelor's degree in business administration on my 6th semester. For my final bachelor project, I am investigating the internationalization strategies of Danish companies, focusing on a case study involving Lastobject, in collaboration with my partner. Afterwards I will start on my master's degree in Finance and International Business.

In describing myself, I would highlight that I am open-minded, courageous, and analytical in my approach to problem-solving. I take ownership of tasks that I undertake or am assigned. In my current position as a trading assistant, I am accustomed to a fast-paced environment requiring quick execution, while also recognizing the importance of precision and accuracy.

2015-2018 Rider at Bang Dressage

During my summer vacation I helped riding in a professional stable.

In my spare time, I have been involved in equestrian sports since the age of 6. From the ages of 12 to around 20, I was highly ambitious in the sport, competing at an elite level. While I have maintained my interest in riding, I now prioritize my studies and career, relegating it to more of a hobby. I enjoy staying active with riding, strength training, and running. Additionally, I am socially inclined and often spend time with friends from my studies, whether it's for coffee or a beer.
