My background
I'm Irish and originally qualified as an International Travel Consultant (IATA/UFTAA) in Dublin before relocating to France. Passionate about travel and working in an International environment, I have gained considerable experience from working as a Bilingual PA with high level executives in Paris for over 25 years, working for well known companies : Disneyland Paris (leisure), Baker & McKenzie (legal), Deloitte & Touche (tax & legal), Vogue Magazine (US) (advertising, fashion & press industry), PricewaterhouseCoopers (HR consulting), Herbalife (cosmetics/food supplements) and BNParibas (finance). Now I envisage an exciting future in this International VA industry.
