About

ENERGY and RESILIENCE With over 28 years of experience in various roles within the apparel and fashion industry, I bring a wealth of expertise spanning Retail and Wholesale. In recent years, I have made the switch to the Juvenile market and am currently active in the Retail Interior Construction industry, combining my commercial background with a focus on building long-term partnerships and supporting brands in their roll-out strategies. As a commercial professional, I combine a strategic mindset with empathetic leadership, driven by the enthusiasm and knowledge of my team. I excel at identifying opportunities for improvement and implementing constructive changes to achieve objectives efficiently and effectively. My skill set includes global sales, trend analysis, B2B, account management, data analysis, and KPI management. I thrive in international environments and am known for my persuasive approach, finding innovative ways to challenge traditions when necessary to drive progress. I firmly believe that a happy and motivated team is the foundation of any success.
