Marcus Gan

Egham ,United Kingdom

Summary

I possess a solid educational foundation from Marlborough College Malaysia, which has instilled in me discipline and a global perspective. My trans formative year in the United Kingdom, particularly in Glasgow and Bournemouth, provided me with invaluable insights into diverse cultures and broadened my understanding of the international business landscape.


In addition to my academic achievements, I have excelled in competitive sports, representing my institution in basketball and volleyball leagues under the British Universities and Colleges Sport (BUCS). These experiences have honed my skills in teamwork, leadership, and resilience, essential qualities for success in both the sporting arena and the dynamic world of business.


Furthermore, my cultural versatility is highlighted by proficiency in languages such as Chinese, English, Malay, Cantonese, Hokkien, and Korean. I bring a unique blend of leadership, communication, and resilience, coupled with a genuine willingness to learn and an embrace of failure as a catalyst for growth. These attributes underscore my readiness for the challenges of university life and the dynamic demands of the business world.
