Awards

2015

In 2015, I achieved first place in the Glassberries Design Awards, a European Industrial Design competition designed for university students across Europe.

The contest's finale took place in Madrid, where I was granted a six-month paid traineeship at BA Glass SA, the second-largest glass company in Europe.

2014

A university contest organized by AETTUA/IEEE Student Branch, sponsored by companies including ubiwhere, Wit Software, Blip Web Engineers, and Coderhat.

Following my achievement of securing 3rd place, I received the opportunity for a 2-month paid internship with Coderhat, now known as DXNET.io.
