A keen learner, she has developed a vast product and local market knowledge and a wide client base whilst working at Prada Copenhagen, supporting the management and team right from the opening of the store.
She displayed strong work ethics, great attention to detail and ambition. She would make a very valuable addition to any luxury retail team.”

— Per Agergaard Olsen
Purchasing Director, Bang & Olufsen
“Alina has made her last assignment as Bachelor Degree in Fashion Procurement, at Bang & Olufsen.
Alina showed great knowledge about understanding Supply Chain Management and, how business processes are working together. The assignment was made upon interview and information I have provided, and Alina showed a fine understanding of getting the most important information, and put it into the right content. This was also proved in the grade she made at her final examen. I can recommend Alina in a logistic department or as a purchasing planner.”
