What I do

Four ways I help brands grow

Each engagement joins brand judgment with commercial and financial discipline.

Brand and commercial strategy

I assess portfolio, distribution and market potential. Then I set priorities for selective, brand-true growth.

  • Portfolio review
  • Market prioritization
  • Hero assortment

Go-to-market and US entry

For French and European brands, I define where the brand belongs in New York. The choice follows its story, art direction and branding.

  • Market entry plan
  • Placement in New York
  • Execution on the ground

P&L ownership and business planning

I build multi-year roadmaps and own profit and loss (P&L) performance against them. Investment follows sales trends, market feedback and return on investment (ROI).

  • Multi-year roadmaps
  • Investment allocation
  • Executive business reviews

Launches, activation and distribution

I run launches from assortment to the store floor. Channels, retailers and visual merchandising move together.

  • Launch commercialization
  • Activation roadmaps
  • Retail and distribution

How I work

Three principles

  • Brand expertise, financial discipline

    I respect what makes a house distinct. I also test every plan with business cases, sales thresholds and ROI.

  • From strategy to the store floor

    A strategy is only useful when it reaches the market. I stay close to assortment, merchandising and the doors where the product is sold.

  • French roots, US base

    I know how French and European houses think. I now work from New York, where they want to grow.
