My Background
📌 Procurement sits at the intersection of people and strategy, where I’ve found the most purpose in my work.
I bring 12+ years of experience in international procurement, having led sourcing strategies across consulting, aerospace & defense, FMCG, cosmetics, and wellness. I’ve worked across Europe and North America, managing complex supplier ecosystems and building trusted relationships with stakeholders at all levels.
🎓 With dual master’s degrees in engineering and business, I bridge technical depth with strategic vision. Whether I’m negotiating a multimillion-dollar contract, mentoring a team member, or launching a cross-border sourcing initiative, I stay focused on what matters most: people, progress, and results.
🌎 Now based in Los Angeles and originally from France, I lead indirect procurement for the Americas at Groupe Rocher (Arbonne, Yves Rocher, Sabon, Stanhome). I bring a cross-cultural lens to leadership: combining structure with agility, and global vision with regional execution.
✅ My priorities include simplifying complexity, building trust across cultures, and delivering sustainable impact through procurement.
