Associate, Alliances Consulting (NZ) Limited
15 years working onboard submarine & ships in the French navy has given me a comprehensive experience with team leadership, propulsion systems, hazardous material & security.
Unique situations (250 days underwater, 4 months missions around the world) have honed my skills in dealing with stress, personal entertained stress, harmony as working environment, achieving goals within deadlines.
Working & travelling around Europe, Middle-East, Asia, Indian & Pacific Oceans, I immensely enjoy cultural exchanges & international environments.
Currently based in New Zealand, I started my own business liaising entrepreneurs within New Zealand while developing strong overseas alliances.
New Zealand offers a wide range of business opportunities through cultural melting pot, skilled migrants from different horizons, open economy & a thrill for adventure & outdoors activities.
