Josephine

A Sorbonne-educated jurist, Josephine holds a Masters in Management and a Masters in Public Law from her alma mater, as well as a dual degree in law and philosophy - a selective program that admits around 15 students per year.

Despite coming from a fully French background, Josephine earned a spot in Ecole Jeannine Manuel, the top international high school in France, from which she graduated two years early and trilingual.

She now focuses on giving her students the same international opportunities she had and helping them with the cultural, administrative, and academic challenges of charting their own path abroad. Outside of her sessions, Josephine competes in volunteer firefighter fitness challenges and recently completed her first Iron Man.
