I am a Parisian creative director, graphic designer, educator, and speaker based in San Francisco. Over the last fifteen years, I have led major initiatives at GQ, The New York Times, Meta, Godfrey Dadich, Departures, Airbnb, and Dropbox. As a fractional design executive and queer leader, I believe in fostering inclusive spaces that unlock human potential.

PASSIONS

Areas I'm passionate about

As creative leaders with a shared commitment to quality, collaboration, and creativity, we're proud to pursue out most meaningful work and deliver the best every time.

MAIN PASSION

💪🏻 Gender Inequality

I know that women make up over half the design industry, and yet, there are still so few represented at the top. So many systemic issues have led to more design leadership roles being taken by men. In fact, the initial promotion to manager is one of the biggest obstacles women face on their career ladder.

🤗 Inclusion & Accessibility

I believe in Neol

A member of the Neol Creative Leaders community

I believe that this platform (and the leaders that make up its community) will only amplify my commitment to supporting women- and nonbinary-led causes. As a female founder, I'm also excited to find ways to address gender-based disparities in the design and creative industry as a whole.
