My name is Frédéric, I am half French half German. I moved back to Germany after living in China for 10 years. I am hard-working, communicative, dynamic, cheerful and a fast learner. I love working in teams and I easily get along with different personalities and cultures. I also speak 3 languages fluently and I have a good command of Chinese. I have relevant experience in the food industry both in a larger company and in startups. I am always happy to meet interesting personalities, feel free to reach out to me :)
