Groupe Alain Crenn (Early)

I guided efforts to oversee all areas covering internal and external communications. I fostered a workplace culture that drove staff to excel by effectively influencing key stakeholders and motivating team members. I also built productive relationships with C-level executives and the media to demonstrate investment and economic and social impact.

Artea Communication

I managed the coordination of corporate affairs across large-scale events, media, public outlets, and internal communications. It was my job to forge productive relationships with senior administrators, department heads, and the media to provide timely and effective communications. I also guided efforts covering strategic media planning, press outreach, campaign events, and all written and multimedia communication pieces.
