About

International senior executive with 20+ years of leadership experience in energy infrastructure, operating across global, complex, and post-merger environments with revenue responsibility exceeding €1B.

My experience spans global sales and marketing leadership, pricing governance, business development, commercial operating model design, and cross-regional execution alignment. Beyond revenue leadership, I contribute to enterprise steering across product portfolio prioritization, digital and IT governance, and application roadmap selection to ensure commercial, operational, and capital alignment. I am motivated by building high-performing teams, strengthening market credibility, and contributing to industrial platforms with long-term impact.
