Personal statement

An opportunity to study the RMIT Master of Global Trade, while fulfilling my current role in Technology and Project Management is literally, the ‘best’ of both worlds. It will be in line with my long-term career objectives of gaining expertise in global trading system and understanding the international challenges and opportunities.

Trade between different countries can help raise standards of living and resolve the issues of poverty and hunger. Global trade plays a significant role in changing the world to become more sustainable.

In the era of digitalization, global trade transactions are still accompanied by a large amount of paperwork and usage of traditional banking methods. I would like to help bridge the gap between global trade and technology by combining my work experience and expert knowledge.

Through the Master of Global Trade program and support from the Hinrich Foundation and its network of experts, I can enhance my expertise to become a technocrat.

This will enable me to contribute to the advancement of global trade by taking full advantage of cutting-edge technologies, including blockchain, artificial intelligence and machine learning. By using these new technologies, we can make trade more optimized, inclusive and less costly.

With the current uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I believe that technological innovations can help build a sustainable global trading system.
