MARLE VAN WIJK I am a motivated, creative, ambitious person who is eager to learn. I have a Bachelor as well as a Masters degree and these studies have provided me with practical and theoretical knowledge of marketing and consumer behavior. This enables me to quickly shift between development and execution of a marketing strategy. Because of my strong communication skills and enthusiasm I enjoy working individually or as part of a team to achieve goals and be productive. For me social involvement is very important and I always try to be the best I can be.
