I’m entrepreneurial by spirit and enjoy start up environments.

During this time I developed new brands and focussed the majority of my time on marketing , business development and business planning. I spent 8 years abroad with Unilever initially in NYC for 5 years as International Marketing Director and then in Geneva as VP international Markets reporting directly to the CEO.
