I hold a Certificate in Digital Technology Product Solutions from MISSION READY and a Baccalauréat in Business/Commerce from Paul Gauguin University. My previous roles include Brand & Web Designer, where I developed user-friendly websites and brand identities, and Claims Assistant at Aon, where I managed insurance claims.
