Why TSM?
What motivates you to join TSM?
Being part of Silicon Valley is incredibly exciting to me as it is the global hub of technological innovation, where the world's most successful startups emerge. I have a strong passion for startups, driven by my past internship at CardUp where I experienced it's fast-paced and collaborative nature. I hope to understand how great startups scale and iterate as accordingly to dynamic market conditions and user needs. I am also interested in the private markets, especially venture capital where startups find funding. TSM would be the perfect opportunity for me to enhance my understanding of the startup ecosystem and would definitely be a transformative experience.
