Hello!

I joined the French Red Cross as a volunteer in 2006 and focused on teaching first aid and on training people. I knew about the brand new ERU and already wanted to join. I had done several long term and short term humanitarian projects and my specialty was languages. I attended the first Relief training in 2008. In 2009, I attended the Cash Transfer Programne training in Washington.

In 2010, I was deployed in Haiti after the earthquake, in Leogane. The following year, I was deployed in Tunisia, in the IFRC transit camp. Then I remained on standby for several years while I founded a family, and am now a mother of 2and back on the active roster!
