About

20+ years building luxury businesses and the teams behind them, across Christian Dior, Chanel, Montres Breguet (Swatch Group), Bulgari (LVMH), and now MARLI New York, where I serve as Managing Director, Americas. I have led retail and merchandising organizations across North America, Europe, and the Middle East, with P&L responsibility and close collaboration with founders, boards, and global leadership. I build teams that are meant to last and deliver sustained growth and performance, not just structures that work on paper. The thing that drives me most isn't the commercial results, it is the people who make them possible. Identifying and attracting the right talent, developing them, and creating an environment where a team can do its best work has been the constant across every role I have held. I was fortunate to learn from great mentors who have shaped my understanding of collaboration and inspired me to pay it forward. Always happy to exchange with fellow luxury professionals and people who care about building great teams.
