About me
Naturally collaborative and curious, I have focused my career on leading and supporting campaigns in international environments within a big diversity of stakeholders. My 10 years of experience working with marketing and content creation for companies such as Coca-Cola, Tottenham Hotspur and Club Med have given me, not just the accrued skills, but also the needed confidence and flexibility to build solid relationships within different levels in the companies. I am creative and self-motivated, but also analytical, with proven delivery of consistent results through KPIs. I have always had the knack for communicating with people - from the easy-going personalities to the tougher ones, in four different languages, if needed. A considerable part of my creative personality comes from growing up in an artistic family. My mother, being a film producer, introduced me to storytelling early in life. My responsible and organised side was built by witnessing my father’s rigid pilot schedules. Both inspired me to travel the world. I have lived in three different countries and have visited more than 48 nations. This globetrotter experience has been an indescribable way to learn more about myself, and, consequently, making me a more resilient professional - ready to face cultural and fast-changing challenges.
