About Katia

Tired of paperwork?
Need to understand what your accountant is telling you?
Need to communicate with English or Spanish-speaking partners?

I am the freelance secretary you need!


After more than twenty years of experience in positions requiring strong administrative, budgetary, and commercial skills, I have decided to offer my services to VSEs and SMEs so that they can focus solely on their core business.


I can adapt to all sectors of activity (my clients are in construction, art restoration, industry, real estate...) and my interventions can take place at your premises or remotely.
