I have a strong connection with Spain, both personally and professionally. I studied in Madrid and lived there for a total of three years, immersing myself in the vibrant Spanish culture and language. I also had the privilege of working for SAP in Barcelona for two years, gaining valuable professional experience. During my time in Spain, I developed a profound appreciation for the vibrant culture and built lasting friendships, which I still cherish and maintain through regular visits.
Fluent in Spanish, I seamlessly blend my cultural experiences with my professional expertise. Originally from Brittany in France and currently residing in Germany, I bring a unique European perspective. This diverse background has enriched my understanding of various business landscapes, allowing me to navigate and address the specific needs of different markets effectively.
With a robust understanding of both the European market and the specifics of the Spanish business environment, I am well-equipped to support our clients and partners. I am excited to connect with members of the Spanish Chamber of Commerce and explore opportunities for collaboration and growth.
