About

With over 23 years of experience in the digital business industry, I am an experienced program manager. I have a passion for using technology solutions to drive business innovation and growth. I am especially invested in the potential of AI to transform our industry and the way we work. At AirFrance KLM, I was responsible for creating 20% conversion booster for our e-commerce site, leading the design team for 5 years, and directing the setup of our fleet wide onboard portal. My proudest achievement was creating an orchestration vision that enables us to serve our content across all B2C applications. All to be powered by an AI algorithm, ensuring our conversations with customers are safeguarded and personalized. I am always looking to learn and grow, and I am excited to connect with other program managers and professionals in the industry who share my passion for AI and the potential it holds.
