Here’s how it all started!

<- Firenze (Italy) and  ^ Greenwich, my university and first fundraising role.

Exploration has been in my blood from a young age. I’ve always been curious about the world and drawn to the thrill of adventure.

With a map on my bedroom wall, I would daydream about visiting new places and meeting people from around the world.

From my small town in Southern Brittany in France to eventually Rosario (Argentina) where I’m currently located, I’ve made over 30 moves across five countries.

It has been an amazing journey, an opportunity to build my confidence, self-reliance, and independence. I love embracing the unknown.

In Argentina, I found a place where the spirit of the epic pioneer thrives. It’s a country of great people and breath taking sceneries. Its history has instilled resilience and an entrepreneurial spirit in its people. No surprise that it is the country that saw the creation of my first online endeveaours.

But let’s go back in time.

It all started at age 20 when I moved to London. For several years, there’s been some back and forth between London, France and even Berlin in Germany.

In 2001, I moved back to London to study business administration at the University of Greenwich. Early on, I knew that wanted to work within the arts.  My long term dream was to assist artists market themselves.

My first post-university role led me to the vibrant environment of arts fundraising.  I worked at the Royal Observatory Greenwich and the National Maritime Museum, one of the UK’s largest museums for 5 years mainly in the Development office. Then I worked at Cancer Research UK as a senior fundraising officer leading a brand new initiative – a stewarding programme for high value legacy supporters.

Then one day I felt the new to change horizons and explore a new country. I moved to Valencia in Spain, without speaking Spanish, without a job and without knowing anyone there. I loved it. Within a few weeks, I picked up enough Spanish to find small jobs then I eventually found a sales job for an international magazine which happened to have their offices in the city.

But …
Every change of country meant learning the language, looking for a local job, understanding visa rules (and so many other unexpected rules) and ways of doing things. It was very time- and money- consuming. 

Something had to change.

When I moved to Argentina, I promised myself that I would use my laptop and  my marketing skills to build something.

Within 6 month, I had already built 3 websites. I discovered blogging and I started sharing my experience to help others on their online journey around the world.

 

If the job you’re looking for doesn’t exist, just invent it!

And this is what I did!
By the end of 2010, I created this present website and started blogging about online marketing and digital marketing. Then I started offering my consulting services.

Around the same time, I joined a local company and worked as their Business Development Manager for 7 years.

Through my own consultancy business, I have worked with dozens of online entrepreneurs in over 10 countries. Coaches, consultants, personal trainers, travel bloggers, content creators, copywriters, translators, agency owners, photographers, etc.

It has been a long journey to get where I am today, a lot of trial and error, a lot of reading and researching, prospecting, and engaging with people.

I have bought many marketing courses to keep up with the latest trends in digital marketing and have had great mentors and coaches in the past 15 years. And this is why I’m now helping others on their online journey.

But there’s one thing I noticed….

I’m the happiest working with Passionate Changemakers.

It’s not a coincidence; I’ve always gravitated towards individuals who had an unwavering passion.

When studying in Bordeaux, France, I worked for 18 months in the wine industry surrounded by passionate professionals.

My first role after uni at the Museum was with colleagues passionate about the Arts, time and space.

My boss for 7 years in Argentina was a passionate language expert and excellent business owner.

All through my working years, I’ve been surrounded by passionate colleagues, managers, business owners and clients.

This strong thread of passion has played a essential role in shaping my career.

You could say I’m not just a strategist and mentor; I’m a fervent advocate for passionate professionals, channeling their passion into thriving organisations around the world.

I’m there cheering on you and supporting you on your success anywhere in the world!
