It was a pleasure to work with Nils and I found him to be a strong leader who is a great listener and communicator. As a senior partner, I found that Nils demonstrated a strong respect for others views and is very open minded in regards to new ideas or approaches to solving design issues. He understands the requirement of the customers and makes designs accordingly. Nils was very liked among his peers and colleagues and I find him to be a very friendly and warm hearted person. I enthusiastically recommend Nils, and wish him lots of success in his future.
