Say a few words about yourself
Bonjour! Fervent francophone and francophile, I grew up in Senegal, studied in France. I believe I am today a Citizen of the Universal as Leopold Senghor would say; like the "Baobab" tree, deeply anchored into my senegalese roots - they help me stand tall - but with my arms/branches reaching out to the rest of the world. My travels and experiences made me the person I am today, richer, fuller and looking forward to many more discoveries. I appreciate all the doors and windows the French language open for me and the ones they are and will for my children: a path to a less monolithic view of the world, a world full of nuances and differences! I work today for the French Heritage Language Program, serving francophone immigrants make French an asset in the US.
