About

I’m an International Press, Influence & Events Director with 15+ years shaping global PR, influencer campaigns and high-impact events for luxury brands in beauty, fashion and premium goods. I build long-term advocacy programs, manage brand ambassadors, and coordinate cross-market teams to tell cohesive, engaging stories across press, influencers and experiential platforms. I thrive in fast-paced, creative environments and excel at turning complex briefs into clear, scalable programs that drive measurable results.

I’m also passionate about sustainability in communications and art/heritage collaborations, working with Chief Sustainability Officers and cultural partners to extend brand narratives beyond products. I mentor diverse teams, foster collaboration across functions and geographies, and love crafting authentic experiences that resonate with audiences while maintaining a human, friendly approach.
