Background

About Talea Ward

I am a student at Concordia University, specializing in International Business. Born in Hong Kong, raised in the suburbs of Montreal, and spending my formative years in Austin Texas before returning to Montreal Canada for university, I bring a global perspective, cultural adaptability, and the ability to connect with people from diverse backgrounds. My academic journey has equipped me with technical expertise in tools like Excel and Tableau, along with a strong understanding of strategic planning, cultural diversity in business, and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Through hands-on projects and coursework, I have honed my skills in market analysis, business optimization, and effective communication. Beyond academics, I have a deep curiosity about the world—its history, its future, and the connections that bind us. My hobbies include traveling, reading, meandering, and exploring new creative pursuits like art, painting, journaling, and scrapbooking. I am passionate about learning and growing, constantly exploring how businesses can embrace curiosity to innovate and evolve in meaningful ways. I am actively seeking internship opportunities where I can apply my knowledge, expand my skills, and contribute to impactful projects in business strategy, analytics, or international markets.
