About
Generalist.
By conviction.
For 19 years, I've been mixing product, marketing, design, tech, and management. Sometimes in the same day. I helped launch eCommerce at L'Oréal Luxe, managed international accounts at BBDO, founded my own startup and sold it. And for over 10 years, I've been living what feels like multiple careers in one at Sewan, a European Telecom, Cloud & Cyber operator I watched grow from an ambitious startup to a major market player.
What drives me is seeing the big picture. Connecting disciplines rather than separating them. Understanding the market as much as the product.
