My role as Senior Director is to navigate the complexities of joint venture (JV) deal-making and governance to drive positive change and growth. My approach is rooted in aligning diverse organisational cultures and operations, a skill developed over nearly 15 years of dedicated practice in management consulting. I empower clients with sustainable B2B strategies that promote strategic growth and shareholder alignment.I am a trusted project delivery lead, and drive business development, with extensive experience advising on complex JV transactions, launches, and governance for large Corporates and Private Equity across multiple sectors and geographies. With a command of French, and a Masters in International Law, I bring a unique perspective on the strategic, legal and commercial aspects of the deal-making process.On a more personal note, I love collaborating with others to find innovative solutions, build lasting connections, and foster relationships. My family, travel, music, and wellness keep me grounded and inspired, and my two daughters motivate me to contribute to a better future and show that anything is possible with determination and hard work.
