Marie-France Dayan, The Zen Investor
Born in Corsica, Marie left France at the age of 20 to obtain her MBA from San Francisco State University in the United States. She began her international career as Director of Business Development for the Danzas International Group. After 8 years, Marie took a sabbatical from the corporate world to pursue her passion of "Feng Shui", which she then taught until 2005 and still practices today.
Unable to stay away for long, Marie returned to the business world in 2005 with an invigorating strength and balance to form her own company focused on the acquisition of investment properties worldwide. Expanding this venture, she then created a commercial financing division to meet the needs of developers seeking private financing, as well as a marketing branch to assist developers in better promoting their projects to international investors.
Content with her success and ready to give back to the real estate community and investors that have supported her career, Marie has now created her own personal web alias, The Zen Investor, to help ease the often harsh and unforgiving process necessary to be successful in property investment. She is dedicated to helping others follow their path to financial freedom through the power of group purchasing and passive income that property investment has to offer.
