About

I’m a sales account manager with an interest in building the best possible partnership between my brand and my accounts. This means making sure to deliver the most dedicated service while still working against objectives. I work with cross functional teams – creation and strategic for instance – and different profile of customers. Therefore, I have plenty of opportunities to show my flexibility and my ability to adapt to many different contexts. I have indeed graduated in marketing and communications and now work in sales. When it’s not about the job, I’m a very curious person interested in many fields: movies, technology, news (with a soft spot for geopolitics somehow), fashion, sports. Undeniably basketball is my passion: I play but also follow it closely from its pure entertainment aspects to the nitty-gritty coaching details. If you would like to know more, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
