2025
Application internship
MFI Maroc
I discovered how a process can become difficult when information is scattered between people and files. Mapping Sales Administration helped me connect daily needs with a simpler capture process and a clearer performance view.

Initiation internship
MARISA
This was my first close view of an industrial system. Following a winter coat from material to finished product taught me that improvement begins by watching carefully, asking good questions, and respecting the knowledge on the shop floor.
