Nicholas Sherry
I am a senior Advertising major with an interest in international media and communications. My passion is languages and I plan on learning many throughout the course of my life. I was fortunate enough to be raised in a Spanish and English speaking household where my love for languages was cultivated. I have spent the last year in Brazil, where I interned at the Latin American IBM Headquarters. I plan on using my ability with languages to facilitate communication between the different countries and people of our world, to hopefully one day change it for the better.
