Sophie is a highly energetic Franco British expert in business development and solutions.
She spent over 25 years in the UK before coming home to her native France to raise her children.
Sophie spent over a decade globe trotting as an executive personal assistant to HNWIs (High Net Worth Individuals) and handled a huge variety of tasks, including managing teams of staff, fleets of vehicles, security details and complex travel arrangements, as well as setting up factories, production lines and efficiency processes.
She is a powerhouse of solutions and strategies.
Since becoming a parent, she chose to slow down a little to enjoy a more family-friendly pace of life.
She now lives in the gorgeous Dordogne region of France, with her two children and a friendly fat cat called Spook.
She had been a soap maker for years by the time she got to France. Soap making was something she'd started doing to find a solution for her son's very poorly skin since birth.
Her hand made traditional soaps were so good that the hobby naturally turned into a successful artisan soap business, which soon grew to become a manufacture and supply of artisan soap to businesses all over the world.
As Sophie's Barn grew and became more streamlined, Sophie started looking for new projects to focus on.
She met an artist and her husband, and this meeting felt like kismet. After having established a business which grew from parental responsibility for her son's wellbeing, it seemed the universe was now providing something which would align with her daughter's interest in art.
This very first meeting was to become the ignition for a project to help as many artists as possible. It was the birth of Artiste Online.
Today, Sophie spends her working time helping people set up, develop and optimise their businesses, in different domains.
She helps artists get their art out into the world.
She helps parents who need to be entrepreneurs so they can remain available for their neurodiverse children.
She helps people get to where they want to go.
During her down time, you can find Sophie kayaking down the Dordogne river whilst singing off key, cooking and eating with her daughter or out exploring the world.
