About

Over 10 years of experience in multinational lifestyle and FMCG companies, driving brand and category growth across diverse markets and regions. Driven by determination and curiosity, I consistently go the extra mile to deliver impact. I’m passionate about corporate strategy, product strategy, and market analysis, with a strong interest in understanding what drives consumer and business behavior. Outside of work, I love exploring new cultures through travel, have a deep appreciation for Chinese culture, and stay active with Brazilian jiu-jitsu and a wide variety of other sports.
