Before becoming a textbook author, I worked as a legal secretary for 18 years. I particularly enjoyed training new secretaries, as there was no specific legal specialization at the time.

Eventually, I completed a bachelor’s degree in vocational education and obtained my teaching certificate. I had the opportunity to teach office automation techniques at college level for over 18 years, while pursuing postgraduate studies in school administration, which led to a master’s degree. I also had a highly rewarding experience working as an educational advisor at Cégep à distance, where I contributed to the development and revision of teaching materials. At college, I supported various departments in the revision of their academic programs.

As far as publishing is concerned, in 2000, I published an advanced word processing workbook with Éditions Logitell and it was met with great success. This paved the way for further collaboration and after many months of dedicated work with the Logitell team, the textbook Suivi de la correspondance was published in 2017. Several other exciting projects followed and are now also featured in Logitell’s bibliography. This hands-on and demanding experience proved to be particularly rewarding. Together, we poured our hearts into these projects with the aim of providing students with meaningful support in their learning journey.
