At the start of his career, Bertrand joined Banque La Henin (Compagnie Financiere de Suez Group).

There, Bertrand was appreciated for his sense of confidentiality, discretion and trustworthiness.
After establishing his own real estate brokerage with Generale d'Investissements SAM, a Monaco-based company, Bertrand developed a successful partnership with International Property Investment Company (IPIC, Inc.). This relationship included prominent personalities in Dubai and Sharjah (United Arab Emirates). He carried out in the Principality of Monaco, property developments optimizing his skills for responsibility in search for the highest and best profitability.
Bertrand strives to make things happen for his business partners, associates and primarily, his clients. He simply likes things well done.

Bertrand joined Sotheby's International Realty (Coast Village Road, Montecito) in June 2013 to share his international and European backgrounds with his clients in Santa Barbara and Montecito where he continues to work with the integrity and customer service-oriented mindset he attained in his prior work.
