JULIA SLOPNICKAportfolio

My name is Julia and I come from a small town in the South of Poland. I
began my education in Poland but a year ago I felf it is time for me to face a
new challange, so I started my studies on Architectural Association in
London. Since I wanted both: to finalise my first school in Poland and
expand my education to entirely new level, I’ve been studying in both
schools for the last year. In June I succesfully gradueted from Silesian
University of Technology in Gliwice gaining a Bachelor of Architecture
degree.
During this year I studied on the 2nd year on the Undergraduate
level at the AA, being a member of Unit focused on research,
implementing new technologies and exploring possible futuristic
visions, working mainly on a project based in Varanasi ( India).
I am a very ambitious person, always looking for an opportunity
for both personal and professional growth, what can be
supported by my educational choices and great determination.
Having experienced this year in London, which has given me so
many new challenges, opportunities and adventures, I am in no
way ready to slow down. Quite the contrary: I want to experience
even more being now fully aware of all the things that still await to
be explored.
That is why I am applying for the internship in your office.
Hope to hear from you soon
Sincerely ,
Julia Slopnicka
