Louis Godfrey
Summary
I am a self-motivated and inquisitive A-Level student with a strong academic foundation in Economics, Psychology, and History.
My passion for finance was ignited by my interest in the political, economic, and psychological factors shaping the global economy over the past decade. This interest was further strengthened by hands-on experience at BlackRock in the summer of 2024, where I gained valuable insights into how these factors drive financial decision-making in practice.
I am now seeking an apprenticeship opportunity where I can further develop my analytical and problem-solving skills, while applying my strong work ethic to contribute to the growth and success of the company.
