From the cradle up to the present, my life has been shaped by an abiding interest in international issues and professional development. As a youngster in a Canadian diplomatic family, I was raised abroad in Pakistan, Egypt, Thailand and Jordan. Later I finished primary and high school in the French language Montreal school system. Additionally, being a completely bilingual person, as much in French than in English and having gained international mobility, I am completely comfortable in foreign situations. My experiences abroad enhanced my language skill by adding Spanish and Turkish to my repertoire.
I have improved my knowledge and skills in Sales, Marketing and Administration in the private sector while working as a sales representative and project manager, building customer relations, elaborating marketing strategies, managing and supervising existing accounts, organizing trade shows and promoting different products. Indeed, I am presently in Ottawa Ontario working at the Canadian Association of Defence and Security Industries. Promoting the Canadian Defence and Security Industry abroad, aswell as managing the Canadian Pavilion Internationally (USA, Europe, Asia, Eurasiatique and Latin - America).
I conveyed those skills in managing and building business relations while developing a multi-cultural personality and a social ability. All these accomplishments and the accumulated experiences indicate my academic capacity, intellectual potential, personal integrity, and enthusiasm for learning and continuous improvement.
I believe that my strong working experience and high quality education background make me a very competitive candidate for the organisations searching individuals with proven ability to persuade and influence through achieving tangible results and to demonstrate passion and leadership experience.
