Zoi Tsana · NKUA School of Law · Athens
Final-Year Law Student
LL.B candidate at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, with an Erasmus semester at the Université d'Orléans. I care about precise legal reasoning, well-built arguments, and the substance of justice.
§ 01 Profile
My studies at the NKUA School of Law have taken me across a broad range of fields — from civil and criminal law to commercial and international law — and I'm consistently looking for ways to connect doctrine with real-world practice.
An Erasmus semester at the Université d'Orléans deepened both my comparative perspective and my academic French, giving me firsthand experience of working within an international legal environment.
I'm defined by attention to detail, analytical thinking, and a genuine appreciation for a well-structured argument — qualities I want to bring to a trainee role at a firm that values rigour and clarity.

§ 04 Experience
A full winter semester as an international student in France, studying law in French and adapting to a different legal system and academic culture. Developed strong academic French through legal coursework.
Early participation in European educational programmes during high school — an initial exposure to cross-cultural collaboration that later shaped my choice to study abroad.
Actively seeking a first internship or trainee position to translate this academic and international foundation into practice.
