Bio
Arjan Yspeert
Working closely with Gerber for six months I have found him highly professional and very personable. Interactions with clients in person, on the phone or in writing were carried out sublimely. A real team-player, tasks and challenges were met and overcome quickly and efficiently. If it weren't for his preference for governance and policy making he would have made a great marketing consultant.

Gerber a su s'intégrer au sein de notre équipe d'une manière exemplaire. Il a un bon sens d'analyse et sait rédiger des rapports clairs et tout à fait compréhensibles. Il a des facilités de communication aussi avec des personnes et des personalités d'une culture différentes. Il a prouvé de pouvoir se débrouiller tout seul à l'etranger avec des moyens limités.

Organizing and planning of shore excursions in Norwegian Ports for large cruise operator like Viking Cruises, Crystal Cruises and Windstar Cruises.
