## About

```text
At Fat Tire Tours in Paris and Versailles, I guided private, group and V.I.P. tours for international visitors and coordinated itineraries, meeting arrangements, route planning and on-the-day logistics. I adapted tours to guests’ interests, backgrounds and mobility needs, and guided cycling groups of up to 20 through dense urban traffic.

At Monsieur Bacchus in Bordeaux, I delivered historical and cultural tours for international guests and managed small and medium-sized groups independently. I’m currently completing Israel’s Certified Tour Guide Program, and bring additional experience coordinating agricultural operations, teams and customer-facing sales.
