Sustainability is a major focus of her role at the business insurance company. In her previous life as a journalist, Cecile worked 12 years as a reporter for the French-speaking wire of the Associated Press in Paris. And after moving to London in 2013, she covered maritime news for specialist websites a couple of years. When she was a teenager, she wrote and published a collection of poems with a high-school friend. She later helped a university friend edit a literary review, to which she contributed imaginary obits of world leaders.
