    One of my memorable moments was conducting a podcast with the lecturers that I'm so close with🔥]]>     2021-03-05 16:12:10 UTC https://padlet.com/acho0062/c1duyu7tvujpqfjg/wish/1274300368     Part-time translator/reviewer acho0062 https://padlet.com/acho0062/c1duyu7tvujpqfjg/wish/1274324010 In line with my passion in reading, I had also worked part-time in reviewing novels before being published. The experience was very satisfying and painted a vivid picture of what the novel-writing industry held behind the scenes!

    Nonetheless, if you'd like to discuss the group project with me and my team, feel free to approach me and we can work something out!]]>     2021-08-23 03:31:31 UTC https://padlet.com/acho0062/c1duyu7tvujpqfjg/wish/1690288937     I'm the team's... acho0062 https://padlet.com/acho0062/c1duyu7tvujpqfjg/wish/1690312130 Hahaha well, yes I do have to agree. I may not always be the team leader but I'm always on my feet to ensure that everything runs smoothly and making sure that we meet the dateline with high-quality outputs with time to spare for correction-making!

    I may seem pushy at times but it's just the fact that I'm worried about not achieving the target with the combined potential of our team! ]]>     2021-08-23 03:42:47 UTC https://padlet.com/acho0062/c1duyu7tvujpqfjg/wish/1690312130     Pitch acho0062 https://padlet.com/acho0062/c1duyu7tvujpqfjg/wish/1690314682 As mentioned above, I always keep the team moving to ensure that everything planned works out in the end. On the other hand, I'm a driven team player that focuses on team communication and conflict resolution for smooth sailing. This unit is new to all of us and I can assure you that I'll give my 110% in ensuring that we all get through this together as a team!

Nonetheless, grades aren't everything and it's the learning experience that benefits us the most. 

    Here are some of the simple yet achieving goals I hope to obtain from this project:

    1. Work well as a team and learn from one another
    2. Learn how to properly and effectively use MS Project

    My job is to help identify student issues and bring them up to the proper authorities for effective resolution. If you have any issues related to the School of Business (SOB), don't fret and just let me know!]]>     2021-08-29 14:01:07 UTC https://padlet.com/acho0062/c1duyu7tvujpqfjg/wish/1702679409
