Skills
Graduating from l'Ecole Boulle, France in 2005, I started building my professional experience through retail and high end residential projects in Paris, developing my passion for fine spatial environments and details.
Later, an opportunity presented for me to travel to Australia. Following an amazing journey around the country, I decided to continue my career based in Sydney.
While in Australia, I have been involved in several hospitality projects, such as restaurants and hotels, as well as high end retail projects, located both nationally and internationally. From concept to project delivery, I have acquired a thorough knowledge of the detailing and construction of interiors.
Throughout the years, my skills have continued to develop to see me managing teams of designers to deliver detailed projects with tight deadlines. I am also adept at coordination between the Client, Project Manager and all project consultants to ensure a project is thoroughly communicated and delivered with ease.
I am fluent in English and French, for all verbal and written communication. This skill allows me to play pivotal logistical roles in projects based in French speaking nations or with French speaking clients or consultants.
Softwares (Windows & Mac OS X): VectorWorks (Strong Skills in 2D, Basic in 3D) - AutoCAD (2D) - Photoshop - InDesign.
