About

I am an Amazon Brand Manager and eCommerce Consultant with over eight years of experience in international brand growth. I combine strategic consulting with hands-on Amazon FBA execution, covering everything from organic ranking and PPC to catalog troubleshooting and logistics. I have managed more than €7M in Amazon brand revenue and overseen €35K+ monthly PPC budgets, always with a focus on measurable and profitable growth. Over the years, I have supported both startups and scaled 7-figure brands, helping them significantly increase sales across multiple marketplaces. I am data-driven and direct: I analyze performance, identify what needs to change, and guide clients in making the tough but necessary decisions to unlock growth. At times, this has meant advising brands to completely revisit their product strategy before launch. Being multilingual (EN/FR/DE native, IT/ES level B1), I bring a deep understanding of European marketplaces and consumer behavior, combined with a proven ability to adapt strategies across regions for lasting impact.
