Dennis CHe
Welcome! My name is Dennis Che, and I recently graduated from the University of Illinois Chicago with a Bachelor of Science in Marketing.
During my internship and various jobs taken during my gap years, I have gained valuable experience in international trade, sales, marketing analysis, and logistics services. These roles have equipped me with a deep understanding of the complexities and dynamics of the global market.
Beyond my professional endeavors, I am passionate about organic gardening and farming. As our world leans more towards industrialized and automated farming, I cherish the experiential aspects of traditional farming. Working with soil offers a therapeutic escape from the fast-paced modern lifestyle, and I believe it holds significant value for our community’s well-being.
Looking ahead, I am eager to pursue a career in marketing analytics and consultancy. I am actively seeking opportunities in these fields and plan to further my education with a Master’s in Marketing Analytics or a more advance degree in a related area. I am convinced that the future of marketing lies at the intersection of technology and human insight, with artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things becoming increasingly integral to our social fabric.
I will be updating this website regularly to share my thoughts, experiences, and ideas with you. Thank you for visiting, and I hope you will join me on this exciting journey.
