Hi, I'm Mariya, an International Business graduate with a passion for marketing, digital business strategies, and project management. My journey has taken me across Kazakhstan, Russia, the USA, Germany, and Malaysia, where I've gained hands-on experience working with international teams and diverse markets. I enjoy creating engaging content and coordinating cross-functional projects that drive business growth. I'm currently working as a Product Line Management Motorsport Footwear Intern at PUMA Group, where I combine my interests in product management and marketing. I also co-produce a podcast called "Culture Talk" where we explore cultural differences through meaningful conversations, which has been a great outlet to blend my communication skills with cultural insights.
