ABOUT SECRÉTECH PLUS

Your Bilingual Linguistic Specialist

My name is Caroline Marie. I have been a virtual assistant specializing in linguistics since 2005; I am a pioneer in virtual assistants! I have nearly 25 years of experience in the administrative field. I am bilingual (French and English), with basic knowledge of Portuguese and Spanish.

Like Obélix, who fell into the magic potion when he was a little boy, I showed an early interest in the secretarial world. At the young age of 8, I asked for a typewriter as a gift! A real little virtual assistant in the making!

Doing nothing like the others, in 1998, I started working as an administrative assistant without training or experience. I acquired my knowledge before getting my diplomas, three of which I obtained self-taught.

Since 2020, I specifically offer linguistic services, a discipline I excel in and have always loved. I regularly do training courses to continuously and effectively improve my work.

"I had the pleasure of collaborating with Caroline Marie on an English proofreading project for one of my clients. Caroline Marie helped us out in record time! Also, Caroline Marie demonstrated professionalism, efficiency, and exemplary customer service. Moreover, her revisions were made scrupulously and the modifications made were more than relevant, even though the document was very complex. I warmly recommend her, and I will not hesitate to use her services in the future. I am lucky to be able to count on a professional like Caroline Marie! 🥰"
