The Enthusiast

BECAUSE THERE IS ALWAYS A SOLUTION!

Hi I’m Muriel, proud mother of two, entrepreneur, business consultant and chartered accountant with a passion for entrepreneurship, reading, Italian food and coffee (a lot of coffee). I love the creation phase of any business or project and I’m a bit obsessed when it comes to finding solutions. I just need to hear that it will be difficult or impossible to feel like doing it ! With my clients I like to provide actionable ideas in an unbiased way, and usually speaks in a language everyone can understand. 
Adaptability and resilience can define me. OK, and I’m a bit stubborn, too 😉

 

Specialities:

As business consultant, I aim to provide clarity and strategies to entrepreneurs and help them create business plans that matches their professional, personal and financial goals. I love to relief overwhelmed business owners who can’t figure out what to do next, or how to do it.

 

Fun Facts

  • Won the ‘Best Mummy of the Year’ Award for 9 years in a row (the jury was - and is still - cute)

  • Cracked my pair of jeans once in Italy after a few holidays (told you I was a fan of Italian food!)

Languages:

Career:

After a master's degree in business management and marketing, Muriel started her career as as assistant manager for a famous restaurant franchise. She went from the HoReCa business to the accounting, working as advisor in an accounting firm, where she learned the job and got certified. From marketing assistant in a financial planning company to starting herself multiple businesses, her red line has always been entrepreneurship, with a strong attachment to associations and (very) small businesses. Along the way she started investing in the USA with her husband where they developed real estate companies.
