About

Curious and passionate about luxury fashion and business strategy. With over 10 years of experience in the industry, I have developed and expanded wholesale networks across US, Europe and Asia, building strong partnerships with brands, retailers and suppliers. I thrive in multicultural and fast-paced environments, balancing creative vision with concrete execution. My background spans contract negotiation, supplier relations, B2B distribution and financial oversight, combined with an entrepreneurial mindset and a solid understanding of international markets. A strong believer in the power of data and structured processes, I enjoy turning complexity into clarity, optimizing workflows and driving growth through clear goals and teamwork. Passion, pragmatism and purpose guide everything I do, always with a customer-centric mindset and a long-term vision.
