Biography

I am coming to Menlo with 11 years of experience teaching French in public schools. I was born in Lille, France and French is my native language. In France I studied Engineering and I worked in the private sector for several years. Then when my family moved to California for my husband’s work, I went back to college to be able to teach French.

In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, cheering for the French National soccer team (“les bleus”), hiking, and spending time with my three children.
