About Me

Born in Paris, I was raised in a French social and educational environment, while benefiting from my mother's Chilean culture, and my father's Bolivian culture. I could appreciate both the richness and the struggles coming from a multicultural environment.

Before coming to settle in the United States with my family, I worked as a psychologist in hospitals and maternity, and in Human Resources in corporations (Air France).

We moved to the United States in 2004 with my husband and two children. Since then, I've been intensely involved in a volunteer organisation "Mom's group" which is a social network for mothers francophones in the Bay Area (Silicon Valley). The group's mission is to help and support French-speaking migrants with information and regular activities.

As a Life Coach, I work primarily with the female Francophone community. My job is to support the reintegration projects, personal projects, the "mid-life crisis" and the cultural acclimatization.
