About

I work at the intersection of global operations, supply chain and business growth, helping fashion and consumer brands build the operational foundations they need to grow across markets and channels, from DTC to retail and B2B. Over the past 10+ years, I have worked across the value chain, from product development, sourcing and manufacturing to inventory planning, logistics, e-commerce fulfilment and international distribution. This gives me an end-to-end understanding of how product, supply chain and commercial decisions connect, and how operations need to evolve as a business grows. At KARÜN, my role grew from managing European operations to overseeing EU and US distribution and, ultimately, Global Operations & Trade across 20 countries in Europe, North America and LATAM. I worked across markets, warehouses, manufacturing partners and logistics providers to structure operations, improve inventory visibility, coordinate cross-border flows and meet the requirements of major retail networks such as Walmart US and GrandVision. Earlier, at The Brubaker, I worked on the product and commercial side of a DTC fashion brand as Product Manager and Operations Manager, covering sourcing, manufacturing coordination, purchasing and production planning, inventory and e-commerce operations. That experience shapes how I approach operations: not as a standalone function, but as the link between product, commercial priorities, customer experience and business performance. I am particularly interested in how processes, systems and data make operations more structured, efficient and scalable. With a Master’s in Digital Transformation and hands-on experience with ERP, WMS, Odoo, Shopify and Power BI, I combine operational experience with a process-oriented, analytical approach to business systems.
