Being a bi-cultural and bilingual household, my family has always valued immersion education. Our daughter attended a French school from preschool through 5th grade and she had a wonderful experience.
I grew-up in France, near Orléans (on the Loire river), where I earned my initial law degree. I then earned my Master's degree and Doctorate in Comparative Law at the Sorbonne, where I taught US Law for a couple of years. I met my wife in Minneapolis 20 years ago and I moved permanently to Minnesota in 2005. I have been teaching Business Law at the University of St Thomas Opus College of Business for many years. I served on the Board of Directors of the Alliance Française of Minneapolis/St Paul for several years as well as on the French Académie's School Council as a parent representative. I currently serve on the Board of Directors of Chloe's Fight Rare Disease Foundation
It has been an honor to have been part of the Notre École project since the beginning. My goal as a board member is to foster a strong and mind-opening education through both French immersion and STEAM.
