Thank you to Romain Devaux, Julia Lecomte and the CCI Paris IdF team! For me, the study of the French language continues to be a passion and a lifelong challenge, and I truly believe that languages are a gateway towards cultural diplomacy. I want to also thank Michel Pichot, my French professor at Aquinas College - Grand Rapids, for having helped me in my French studies and for having given me the opportunity to take a course in French for Business and to pass the exam and receive the Diploma of Business French B2. Thank you also to Guillaume Lacroix, Consul General of France to Chicago for having introduced me to the team at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry - Paris, Ile-de-France, and thank you to Julia Lecomte for having given me the opportunity to do this interview.
