Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

Ten years building projects between France and French-speaking Africa: first on television sets in Cotonou, then in independent film distribution in Bordeaux. This journey taught me one thing: complex projects only succeed if someone knows how to communicate clearly, coordinate scattered teams, and stay focused on results. That's what I do. Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in HR Management, I am building the methodological framework that complements ten years of field experience. What I'm looking for: a structure where communication nourishes corporate culture and where my hybrid profile is an asset.
