Krudar Muay Thai Fitness Center

As an international kung fu athlete, I was always looking to explore and expand my martial arts skills. When I discovered Muay Thai, I knew I had to give it a try.

 

The combination of striking and grappling techniques, along with the cultural significance of the art, really drew me in. I made the switch and have been training in Muay Thai ever since.

 

While I'm still building up my skills and experience, I have a strong passion for this martial art and am determined to eventually compete at a high level.

 

In the meantime, I continue to learn and grow as a Muay Thai athlete, always striving to improve and push myself to new heights.

Marketing Experience

Advertisement Creator for various Companies

I launched my TikTok account, minenezuzu, in January 2022 with the goal of helping other engineering students succeed in their university careers. To my surprise, my videos proved to be both funny and relatable, and over 6 of them even went viral and have accumulated 13K followers! I have also been featured on accounts like academicprotutprs and brunelbanter with 100K + followers, and my content gave them over 3-5 million views!

 

I've even had the opportunity to work with six companies on marketing their products on the platform, and have had various companies use my existing content to promote their own products.

 

As an Industrial Engineering student at a prestigious university, I enjoy creating innovative and informative content to help my peers navigate the challenges of university life.
