Résumé

I am a bilingual and multicultural general manager with a passion for organizations and people with over 15 years of experience in sales and marketing.

I held managerial and board positions including the full responsibility of a subsidiary located in the United States where I was based for more than 8 years. An adept at envisioning and swiftly executing opportunities, I have identified and exploited business and market opportunities, and added millions of dollars to the bottom-line,

My domains of expertise are international business development, business restructuring, go to market strategy as well as management of sales team and distribution networks in B2B and B2C.

I am driven by an entrepreneurial spirit and a strong capacity to develop and nurture relationships.

In my early career, I helped launch a successful startup which has revolutionized the way people do their grocery shopping. More recently, I have been involved in the launch of another company specialized in B2B distribution.

At a corporate level, I have led several digital business transformation programs, including supply chain and logistics optimization and enterprise information management projects (CRM, CMS, analytics), to enhance business performance and create people and data efficiencies.

In 2020, I decided to follow a personal development goal and embarked in a journey to pursue an Executive MBA at ESSEC & Mannheim. This has been an incredible experience that allowed me to acquire relevant knowledge and tools readily applicable to the challenges of today and tomorrow as well as developing a 360-degree view of business and expertise in all corporate functions to reinforce my previous skills and experiences. It has also been the opportunity to work with amazing professional and individuals from cross-industries and nationalities but also to experience the collaboration with an NGO.

While following my EMBA, I have been providing consulting services to help a company establish a new strategic direction to secure their future by implementing a new business model.

Curious and caring for my environment and its sustainability, I am recognized for transforming cultures and organizations as I build and lead teams and processes, globally. I am seen as a motivating coach who invests in building lasting organizational and people capabilities.
