Bitlocker network remote access

Hello,

I just enabled the Bitlocker drive encryption on C:\ on my laptop pc.

The OS is Windows 8.1 and it is only in a workgroup and not added to the company's domain.

My user is the only local machine administrator.

Although on my company's for file server and other services purposes I have an domain user account in order to access information on domain file server but for that i need to insert the correct input of my domain user credentials.

What I need to know is that if it is possible for a network domain admin to access my personal information located in my C:\ through the network anytime I'm connected since my pc is not added on my company's domain? Shouldn't Bitlocker prevent the remote access?

Thank you
