Why did you decide to study Psychology and Language Sciences?

I did some introductory Psychology classes previously and loved them, and being bilingual myself I'm fascinated by many aspects of language.

What are you doing now? 

I’m a Senior Analytics Solutions Consultant at Periscopix, a digital marketing and web analytics agency.

How has your degree helped in your further career? 

I learned how to manage my time, how to self-motivate to move projects forward, and most importantly in my opinion, how to think about data critically.
