About my journey...

In 2011, after living for years in Austria, I put down my bags in Switzerland. 

 

With a foundational legal education in France, my academic journey led me to specialize in Marketing & Communication with a focus on Destination and Tourism Management at the University of Savoy. This path afforded me the invaluable opportunity to spend enriching years in Austria, where I immersed myself in health tourism studies and honed my English communication skills.

 

Over the past decade, I've been privileged to lead the Sales & Marketing divisions of esteemed European hotels. These roles have been with unique, independent establishments where heartfelt hospitality is not just a practice, but a philosophy. I've consistently aimed to go beyond the extra mile—because in such environments, exceptional service is the norm.

 

At 43, I stand as a free-thinking French woman, fully energized and organized, a mother of three boys, and backed by a supportive husband. I'm perpetually engaged in projects, thriving in the contentment of a balanced life. I am fluent in English and German, with a practical grasp of Austrian dialects and Swiss German.

 

My familial roots are deeply entrenched in the transportation industry, with three generations of ownership of coaches, buses, and taxis. I was raised amidst the hustle of excursions, the meticulousness of site inspections, and the entrepreneurial spirit—complete with the occasional fuel stain from my Sunday best. This immersion I call “impregnation” has been a profound influence.

 

In representing my employers, I've graced numerous international trade shows like ILTM Cannes, IMEX, WTM SKI, WTM London, ATM Dubai, ILTM Asia acting as the 'face' of the organizations, cultivating personal relationships with travel agents and suppliers, and spearheading familiarization trips. My extensive network and strategic approach have been pivotal in organizing trade shows and maximizing the potential of business travels.
I had successful cooperation with partners like Swiss Deluxe Hotels, Great Hotels of the World, Best of the Alps), as well as with well-known destinations like Lech Zürs Tourism, Bern Tourism, the Jungfrau Region.

 

With a tapestry of international experiences and a robust network, I've launched BLANC BLEU. This venture is my canvas to offer tailored Sales & Marketing expertise in tourism and beyond. I am excited to guide small firms across various sectors towards a pristine image, sharp market positioning, and bespoke corporate communication. My commitment is unwavering—to satisfy clients and achieve our collective ambitions with user-friendly tools and astute sales strategies.
