Christiane joined Art x Terra over seven years ago, initially working in customer service. This experience allowed her to develop a strong understanding of the artist-entrepreneur profession. She is now a facilitator, working on the front lines to support and train artists.
Over the course of her career, she has developed a deep understanding of artists’ professional development needs, enabling her to guide them in a personalized way, tailored to their goals and individual realities.
Passionate about sharing knowledge, Christiane has always been dedicated to teaching. She first worked as a Pilates and nutritional rehabilitation instructor, then as a French as a second language teacher for federal ministries. Building on this experience, she naturally transitioned into the arts through her involvement with Art x Terra. Attentive and a great listener, she creates a supportive environment that fosters learning and the growth of the artists she works with.
