How Multilingualism Fuels My Passion for Hosting Global Events



My job is to host events and make them memorable for audiences around the world. My specialty? I do this fluently in both French and English! Speaking several languages opens your mind and enables you to connect with people in different manners, creating an inclusive and engaging atmosphere for all attendees.


The Beauty of Multicultural Audiences


I love melting pots, and that's often what I see from the stage in front of me: people from around the world here to learn something from the conference they took time to attend! It's an incredible sight, witnessing a diverse audience come together, united by their quest for knowledge and growth. This diversity is what makes each event unique and unforgettable.


My Passion for Languages


In my bio on my website and on LinkedIn, I share my journey of studying languages, including Arabic, Italian and Spanish. I've always loved learning and speaking languages since a young age, and this passion has shaped my career in remarkable ways. My journey began when I arrived in the UK and had to learn English. Starting in sales with a script written in English in front of me was, admittedly, scary! However, this challenge became a stepping stone in my career.


From Sales Executive to Head of Global Sales


My language skills eventually led me to a job at the Financial Times, an esteemed institution in the UK and worldwide. I often found myself thinking, "Pinch me, this can't be real!" It was a dream come true. Through hard work and determination, I went from a sales executive for Europe and Africa to Head of Global Sales. It was a challenging journey, especially navigating the dynamics of women vs. men in business - you know the drill! But I persevered and achieved my goals.


Becoming My Own CEO


Today, I am my own CEO and I absolutely love it! Passion is at the center of everything I do, and this passion drives me to make every event I host special and memorable. The thrill of engaging with diverse audiences and the satisfaction of delivering exceptional experiences is what keeps me going.

I can't wait to work with you on your events! Whether it's a corporate conference, a cultural festival, or a grand celebration, I'm here to ensure your event is a success. Together, we can create experiences that resonate, inspire, and leave lasting impressions.
