KJU has a very friendly and mutually supportive atmosphere that made me realize I wanted to work in a similar one later on, as well. Luckily, I found my calculations and I plan for the long term. I learned a very important economist vision on things that helps me in my work even to this day. I do not only just simply look at how good the product is – I have a higher level of vision and I can perform my tasks with a managerial approach. I try to create a win-win situation in my work and make sure what we do is good both for the company and the guests as well. Clearly, my teachers were the most inspiring during my studies: each of them helped me develop the vision with which I could become successful in my profession. The basics of my attitude to quality work were handed down to me by them. I learned precision and quality-oriented work from them, and they inspired us to get the most out of ourselves.
