Brief Biography

Professor Isabelle Chapuis-Alvarez studied Modern Greek at the Université de la Sorbonne, Paris. While working on her Doctorate in Paris she also taught French and expressed her interests in art through participation in several art exhibits. She loves to travel. She lived for five years in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia where she taught at the French School and also taught members of the Crown Prince's family. This was a wonderful experience and a time of great learning. After this middle-eastern experience, Isabelle moved to Grand Rapids with her husband Guillaume and her two children Stélios and Athina. Here she taught French and Art. Another mission of her husband then took the family back to the Middle-East for two years, this time to the United Arab Emirates. While not reading her favorite "bandes dessinées" from Cothias of Ferrandez, she is looking forward to painting with her mother, who is also a fantastic cook!
