Nick Lee
Export Area Manager
Europe

I have an MA (German) and a BCA ( Marketing). Currently I am the Export Area Manager for German-speaking Europe of an important Italian company. (...)

My German studies opened my mind to other cultures and their way of seeing the world. (...)

Learning German was, and continues to be, a challenging, but extremely satisfying and rewarding experience.
