At Peace.

Take Good With Bad
"You have to take the good with the bad, smile when you're
sad, love what you've got and remember what you had. Always
forgive but never forget, learn from your mistakes but never
regret, people change, things go wrong, just remember, life
goes on."

She graduated from law school at Paris West University Nanterre La Défense, and obtained a Master's degree in English and labor law from the Institut d'études politiques d'Aix-en-Provence. Since 2010, she has presided over the Institute's board of directors.
