Valerie LECLERCQ
French woman in Brooklyn
A communication and localization expert, I have worked in advertising agencies in New York for 8 years, before heading the PanEuropean Marketing efforts of International companies, from Paris. I understand the needs of making a piece of communication "local", not just "translated" and it often starts with the picture, before the words...
Back in New York since 2005 I have written articles for newsletters and on-line magazines on style and design.
I also have a Real Etate license and I help people find their new home or investment property in Brooklyn.
I can write or edit in French and English, have flexible rates and schedule.
After 8 years in Manhattan in the Advertising Industry, I have adopted Brooklyn and don't want to leave it!
Like many I have been seduced by the charm of old stones, and by the character of the architecture as well as of the people of Brooklyn. More "real", Brooklyn has more of the Manhattan I knew 15 years ago.
Are you moving to Brooklyn? I'm here to help. Covering Fort Greene, Brooklyn Heights, DUMBO, Boerum Hill, Cobble Hill, Caroll Gardens and more I will find you your next home, weather you want to buy or rent.
Are you looking for more properties?
Would you like to sell?
I would love to hear your Brooklyn story!
Best,
Valerie
