About

With an engineering background in electronics, microelectronics and optoelectronics completed with a marketing of innovation degree, my professional evolution allowed me to work in many different and complementary positions. Recognized for my natural leadership, management and soft skills, open communication, result oriented mindset supported by a rigorous and pragmatic execution, I have most of the time been asked to define and implement new strategies, organizations, processes and methods. This series of responsibilities brought me a good vision of the key industrial company contributors, on how to improve them and how to optimize their interactions.
