About Me
As a dual French and American citizen, I bring a unique perspective to the luxury industry, blending European sophistication with a deep understanding of the U.S. market.
Following a lifelong dream, I relocated from Paris to New York in February 2022, to immerse myself in the city's dynamic fashion scene and seize new opportunities. I am committed to building my career here, with no intention of moving back. I see New York as the center of my professional aspirations, where creativity, opportunity, and ambition converge.
Currently, as an Area sales manager for the Holding Textile Hermès, I represent the Holding Textile Hermès (HTH), working across two distinguished brands:
-
Bucol, the luxury fashion textile brand
-
Métaphores, renowned for its interior design fabrics.
With Bucol, I collaborate closely with iconic fashion designers, supplying them with high-quality textiles that elevate their collections.
For Métaphores, I focus on developing growth strategies in the U.S., working alongside our agent Kravet. I train the Kravet teams, present collections to interior designers, curate the fabrics for the merchandising of their showrooms, and work on collaborations and events, fostering a deeper connection with the design community.
