Audrey Desrosiers (she/her)

Administrator - C.A.

With a bachelor's degree in classical music and in criticism and dramaturgy, Audrey also studied graphic design at the California Institute of the Arts. She thus became familiar with many forms of artistic expression, driven by her desire to explore contact with the Other. It was this same desire that prompted her in 2006 to turn to pet therapy, which she combined with her talent as a teacher in order to approach clients with particular challenges. Specializing in therapeutic intervention for children with serious attachment and behavioral disorders or with language difficulties, Audrey has also launched her own business, Au bout du Museau, where she not only offers pet therapy services, but also professional coaching and digital books for entrepreneurs.

 He now works as a director of communications at the Society for Arts and Technology [SAT], a position where he can put all his skills to good use.
