VINCENNES

En résumé

Digital Product and Design Specialist with 7+ years of experience in the digital industry. I set a strong conceptual and strategic direction for my project teams. I’m never without: a blank notebook, black marker and big ideas. With a strong eye for both visual and typographic detail, I'm not afraid to say: "this could be better."

As a leader in a company spanning two countries, I manage diverse and international teams on a daily basis. My strength lies in uniting and leading these teams towards a shared end goal. With an innate quality for seeing the hidden strengths which lie in each individual, I drive my developers, designers and marketers to bring their best to the table.

With past work experiences rich in the creative industry—music, photography, video production, and web design—I founded my own media agency in 2009. Leveraging the skills learned here as an entrepreneur, I relocated to Paris two years later to work as a multimedia designer. After joining SIEN in 2011, I quickly worked my way up to Creative Director, Mobile Product Manager, and eventually, to the Executive Board of SIEN. I became a founding member of AdaptiveBee’s Executive Board in 2016.

Traveling between continents, as both a professional musician and as a simple tourist, has given me a deeper understanding of the different cultures and the ways in which we relate and interact with one another. These experiences have had a lasting impact on how I communicate with my creatives, developers, clients and ultimately, people.

I love making new professional acquaintances. Reach out if you want to talk technology, Apple, or soccer.

Eligible to work in the US.
