I was in charge of the college in both, Archambault and Cowansville federal penitentiaries.

I had 78 inmates under my supervision and I had to design their individual learning plans in order to get their DEC. I was also teaching compulsory subjects, such as French grammar and literature.

In addition to my FSL training services, I also have several regular clients for translation, text editing and proof reading.

I was the President of our Condo Board Association. I managed to get back the association's finances on track and even get some of our money back after it had been poorly administrated by the developer/builder. I fired and hired new contractors and implemented an efficient administration. When I left Montreal to move to Ottawa, the association's finances were in real good shape.
