How do you see your professional career until now?

The statute change of  a CEO who becomes a magistrate may be atypical for several STRs but the experience acquired in the private economy for more than 25 years is, to be sure very useful to understand our society and to serve it as best. As a consequence, I am very satisfied of my career which I would like to add a better knowledge of the foreign languages.

How did you know the EASTR?

By an information transmited to the whole vaudois prefects by Ms Pierrette Roulet-Grin, EASTR’s member of honor, whereas she was still a board member.

What is the epic event of your career?

My nomination as Prefect by the Canton de Vaud’s Council of State

Could you describe a typical day within your territory/organization? 

It always start by a contact with each collaborator, continues with the interception of mail, the preparation of the answers for them, the fine repression, the preparation of criminal hearings or conciliation in tenancy matters, the presidency of hearings, the wording of recitals or minutes. It continues regularly during the evening by official representations or working and information sessions with the local authorities.
