Franco-British, Alexander lived in London until he was 28, where he worked in the automotive industry for ten years, within prestigious British brands. This career path enabled him to develop skills in sales, management and administration, culminating in the management of several dealerships.

In 2009, accompanied by his wife Claire, he decided to change his life in search of a new adventure, eager to discover his French roots.

They opened a guest house on the shores of Lake Biscarrosse, in a wild and unspoilt setting, met some wonderful people and, after the birth of their two children, decided to settle on the Bay of Arcachon, making this experience an enchanted interlude.

Alex, who has been interested in architecture and design since childhood, took an interest in real estate and acquired several properties, which he renovated and rented out on a seasonal basis. In this way, he honed his ability to project himself into a place and transform it to give it a second life.

As a natural extension of this activity, he decided to join the team, where he put his negotiating skills to good use. And it’s with great enthusiasm that he now accompanies ARCHIK customers.
