Born and educated in France.
|

When 20, soon after graduating and deeply curious of international professional experience, I moved to San Francisco, USA, where I created my own line of accessories distributed in high level multibrand stores and the Nordström department store.
I moved then to Roma, Italy, to further discover the fashion industry and the Italian culture. I learnt the language and worked on the international market.

In order to better understand the value chain of the fashion industries and how to develop a product offering, I joined the French styling consulting company Peclers Paris. I was part of the Sales team and I already had a strong understanding of the product range.
|

I decided then to evolve my career by getting a post graduate diploma from the famous Institut Français de la Mode, IFM, Paris. I was 30 years old at that time.
|
| • |
The French fashion department store, Le Printemps, offered me then to become their buyer and product manager for their private label of leather goods.
After three years, the Chloé maison, asked me to set up their leather goods business activity. I participated to the launch of their first 'it-bags' as of Bracelet and Paddington.
I did the same for the luxury brand, Rena Lange in Germany, during another four years.
When Chloé proposed in 2010 to me to come back as Head of Accessories collections, I took over this position to help them develop the business to the next step.

Since 2011, I propose consulting services to launch or grow the Leather goods business for any brand wether Luxury designers or historical Maisons. |
