Introduction
My journey from the vibrant landscapes of Thailand to the picturesque town of Geel in the Flemish Region of Belgium has been both challenging and exhilarating. Armed with a Bachelor’s in Business Administration from Khon Kaen University, my career path has been a mosaic of diverse roles – from serving as a waitress on a Thai cruise to embracing the marketing world as an account executive. Whether it felt like an odd job or a strategic career move, each step enriched my understanding of the global marketplace and ignited my passion for marketing.
Enrollment Decision and Career Goals
The transition to a new country, especially one with a different primary language, posed unique challenges, particularly in the professional realm. My desire to carve out a space for myself in the Belgian job market led me to seek certification in Digital Marketing. I chose the Professional Certificate Program in Digital Marketing from Purdue University, offered through Simplilearn, as a strategic step to enhance my skill set, bridge any gaps in my understanding, and prepare myself for future roles in this dynamic field.
