ABOUT
A career across business, finance and technology.
I began my professional career with Dow Chemical, working in France and Germany in finance positions with European and global responsibilities. My work included financial reporting, budgeting, cost analysis and international transfer pricing.
I later moved into entrepreneurship, founding and operating an e-commerce business in France serving customers across Europe. This gave me hands-on responsibility for the entire business, from product development and manufacturing to marketing, technology, operations and financial management.
More recently, I have focused on software and digital product development, combining business experience with practical work in Python, web technologies, databases, APIs, React, Next.js, machine learning and AI.
EXPERIENCE
Three complementary perspectives.
Corporate finance, entrepreneurship and technology have each contributed a different perspective to the way I approach business problems.

Technology

TECHNOLOGY
Building things, not just studying them.
My technology work has focused on practical applications: building software, automating processes, working with data and turning ideas into usable digital products.
