About Matthew Smail:
MSc student in Sustainable Development in Practice, with a BA in German. I have developed excellent research, data collection and critical evaluation skills through my studies, along with strong communication and presentation skills. I am highly motivated and adaptable: part-time chef work while studying has allowed me to develop strong time-management skills and ability to work efficiently under pressure and in a team. Time spent working abroad has fostered valuable skills of resilience, self-reliance and independence, and being in a particularly environmentally-conscious country such as Austria not only enhanced my spoken and written fluency in German, but also ignited my passion for sustainability and the natural environment. My primary areas of interest relating to sustainability are food & waste management, transportation and sustainable urban development.
