I am French, but I spent my childhood in Bonn and Berlin. After graduating from high school, I wanted to move back to Germany. So I decided to take a double degree in French and German law, which enabled me to divide my studies between Cologne and Paris. After a few years working for an English-speaking clientele, I’m delighted to continue working in an international environment with Qivive.
