1. What's your name?
Marina Adell Domenech
Where are you from?
I´m from Valencia, a beautiful city on the east coast of Spain.
What are you studying and where?
I’m currently finishing my last year of the degree in business management and
entrepreneurship at the London School of Economics.
When did you join The Edtech Podcast?
May 2017
What attracted you to the placement and what are you looking forward to?
The Edtech podcast is a start-up growing very fast. Having the opportunity to join this
journey from the start and being part of the process to achieve its objectives and goals
opens many doors for my personal experience and I am sure will help me to develop as
a person. In addition I will be able to acquire experience in every department of the firm
which will make me discover new passions and make me more flexible.
What's your favourite book and why?
Fall of Giants and Winter of the world by Ken Follet are my favourite books and this is
because i haven’t read the third book of the trilogy, Edge of eternity. The books narrate
the experience of the First World War and the Second World War through the points of
view of five distinct families from different countries. This allows people understand how
the experiences of these people were according to the part in the world where they were.
I have always been fascinated by history and enjoy going to different museums. Learning
whilst Reading these books is the icing in the cake.
What's your superpower?
I have the superpower of being positive and optimistic 24/7!
