My Motto: “Transform and Perform”
Transformation drives performance, and performance fuels transformation.
With over 20 years of global leadership experience across multichannel retail, technology, and digital innovation, I have had the privilege of specializing in the “3 F’s” – Fashion, Food, and Furniture.
My career spans roles in some of the world’s most iconic brands: Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren, ESPRIT, Princesse tam.tam Paris, Poltrona Frau – Cassina – Cappellini, and Auchan Retail.
As a transformation-driven leader, I’ve built a reputation for delivering high-impact change, optimizing operations, and uniting diverse international teams around a shared pursuit of excellence and sustainable growth.
What fuels my leadership philosophy?
🌟 A deep belief that customer experience and brand DNA are the essence of business success. By keeping them at the heart of strategy, I’ve cultivated lasting impact and enduring loyalty.
🌟 A relentless focus on people—the most valuable asset in any organization.
A Journey Built on Transformation and Resilience
My rise from a sales assistant – during university – to global leadership roles is a testament to curiosity, resilience, and an insatiable drive for growth. I’ve led multicultural teams through challenging transformations while fostering an inclusive, empowering environment where innovation thrives.
Roots that Ground Me
My academic foundation in Political Sciences and Government from the University of Padova—nestled in the historic Venice region—enriched me with a profound understanding of law, economics, philosophy, and languages. This multidisciplinary education shaped my global perspective and sharp critical thinking, forming the cornerstone of my leadership style.
Languages & Leadership Across Borders
Multilingual and multicultural, I lead fluently in English, French, and Italian, converse in Spanish, and treasure Venetian at home. Having lived in Italy, France, and Malta, I’ve honed a flexible communication style and situational leadership approach rooted in real-world experience and a “test & learn” mindset.
Balancing Work and Life
Beyond the boardroom, I find balance in the simple joys of life: trekking, jogging, yoga, and quiet moments of reading, chanting, and meditation. I’m a lover of red roses, dark chocolate, and fine Italian and French wines. Exploring cultures through travel and culinary arts keeps my spirit alive.
My Compass for Leadership
My personal motto: “You have to know where you started to understand where you are,” serves as my guide in life and business. I provoke meaningful discussions and inspire action in both my teams and my strategic consulting work.
At the core of my journey is the drive to transform, perform, and leave a legacy of excellence.
Let’s shape the future, together. 🌍✨
