About

Growing up in Paris, I moved to Lyon to complete a dual degree: a Master from CEFAM and a BBA from Northeastern University in Boston.
During my studies, I travelled around the world to get some work experiences through my internships with a first one in Jaipur, India as a Digital Marketing Assistant then a second one in Rotterdam, Netherlands as an Account Manager Assistant.
After 3 years at CEFAM, I moved to the United States for 2 years and finished my studies in Management and Supply-Chain Management at Northeastern, Boston. While living in the United States, I also had the opportunity to do a coop at Abbott for 6 months as a Procurement Specialist in Chicago's area.
In 2020, I graduated and obtain both my diplomas. Due to Covid and the challenges of finding a full-time job in the US at that time, I came back to Rotterdam to work as Account Manager for an application developer named Move4u and a year later started working at Nike EHQ as a Supply Chain specialist for Intersport France, Central Europe and Forum Sport. I later took on a Sports Marketing Coordinator role as well, insuring football athletes receive the right equipment at the right time, managing the different printer and taking care of invoices.
Throughout my work experiences, I focused a lot on developing processes and manage to create some automated models saving time and reducing waste on a big scale. I also took part of many clients negotiations and acquisitions and was able to increase revenues in different companies and industries.

In parallel of my studies and full time work, I took on different part-time roles as host, bartender and in retail. I have also been work on directing photoshoots and creating contents with different photographers and in many locations.

Outside of work, I am a huge sports geek following closely every major leagues (Football, NBA, NFL, MLB, UFC, Boxing, F1, Tennis...). I also share a passion for Arts, visiting every museums in the cities I live, and Fashion, being part of developing a clothing brand based in Ivory Coast with a friend and attending many fashion shows
