Bilingual professional in executive assistance and administrative management, with over 20 years of experience supporting executives, teams, and projects in various sectors such as technology, real estate, marine, wine, and hospitality.

I effectively coordinate cross-functional initiatives, manage priorities, and provide high-level operational support in an international environment.

My expertise covers executive assistance, project coordination, financial management, and client/supplier relations.

As a native English speaker and perfectly bilingual in French, I excel in intercultural communication, process optimization, and the implementation of fluid and efficient organization.

My colleagues describe me as a reliable, proactive, and approachable person, with a great capacity for adaptation and a natural sense of composure in complex environments.

Accustomed to dynamic and multicultural contexts, I am proficient in Microsoft Office 365, Teams, Zoom tools, as well as ERP management software (Sage, EBP, SAP).

I am currently seeking new opportunities where I can leverage my skills in bilingual communication, organization, and project management to support the international development of companies.
