About me
I work internationally and enjoy meeting people from different cultures to exchange ideas and collaborate on successful projects. I work with clients in France, Belgium, Ireland, the Netherlands, the UK, Switzerland, Germany, the UAE, South Africa and Turkey.
I am married to a French man and have a step-daughter. When I'm not working, I enjoy sports (caving/speleo, hiking), cooking, music, reading in English and French, and travel.
Why I joined xing.com:
To meet like-minded people for business development, prospecting and exchange of ideas. Success is a two-way street, let's help each other to succeed!
What's important to me:
Honesty and kindness, living life with respect for other people and our planet, being grateful for my family and friends.
Business is about working hard and making money, but it is also about listening to the other person and developing sincere and cooperative relationships. A person cannot truly succeed without doing this.
"The wisdom to perceive the interconnectedness of all life and living.
The courage not to fear or
deny difference; but to respect and strive to understand people of different
cultures, and to grow from encounters with them.
The compassion to maintain an
imaginative empathy that reaches beyond one's immediate surroundings and
extends to those suffering in distant places.
These qualities are the essential elements of
global citizenship."
