About
My name is Jessica D. W. Sherman, I am an American student currently doing a masters in International Business Management in Paris. For undergraduate, I majored in corporate anthropology with a minor in French. My research for corporate anthropology focused on the cultural differences between workers in the US and France, and the experiences of Americans working in France for the first time. I am fluent in French and hope to stay and work in Paris for a few years after my Masters program is complete. I would like to work for a large multinational firm in order to help advise people on the cultural differences between workers from different countries and how that can affect a business and increase effectiveness if handled correctly.
