Accomplishments:
Riche de 7 ans d'expérience en cabinet d'expertise comptable en France, je suis partie en 2015 pour les Emirats Arabes Unis. J'ai la chance de travailler pour un cabinet d'avocat International et un groupe multinational dans l'éducation. J'ai eu l'opportunité de créer un cabinet de conseil en comptabilité et en fiscalité aux Émirats arabes unis, que j'ai cédé en 2020. Depuis lors, je suis impliqué dans des opérations de trading variées, couvrant des domaines tels que le matériel médical, l'alimentation et l'industrie pétrolière et gazière. En mars 2020, alors que la France était aux prises avec une pénurie de masques pendant la crise du COVID, nous avons réussi à importer plus de 2 millions de masques destinés aux transports publics français. Aujourd'hui, je me lance dans l'aventure passionnante d'E-Wand et je suis à la recherche du partenaire idéal pour m'accompagner dans cette entreprise.
