A Journey of Adaptation, Leadership & Passion

I'm a strategic marketing consultant with over a decade of experience across various industries, including extensive work in the fashion sector. My expertise lies in crafting comprehensive marketing strategies, developing strong brand identities, and executing high-performance digital campaigns.

Born in France and raised across multiple countries, I developed a global perspective and a passion for communication early on.

My multicultural upbringing instilled adaptability, which has been pivotal in my career as a marketing and digital strategist.

Inspired by my father’s leadership and ambition, I was drawn to high-responsibility roles from the start. My career began with a foundation in marketing and communication, leading to key roles like Digital & Marketing Director at Rime Arodaky, where I drove growth and brand innovation.

In 2017, I founded Digital Natives Studio, collaborating with renowned brands like L’Oréal and boutique businesses to deliver tailored digital solutions. After relocating to New Zealand in 2020, I expanded my expertise through senior management roles at Moochi and Jamie Kay, refining strategic planning and CRM skills in a new market.

Since 2022, I’ve thrived as a fractional CMO and marketing strategist, blending independent consultancy with strategic work as a senior marketing consultant at Done by Nine. As a mother and business owner, I’ve achieved a balance between meaningful work that challenges me, empowering brands and teams to succeed. yet offers flexibility in this season of our family life.
