What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and close enterprise partnerships, open new markets, and shape GTM from zero in a cross-cultural, relationship-led environment. I value direct ownership, senior stakeholder access, and opportunities to turn in-person trust into commercial growth.

I've closed enterprise partnerships for EcoLearn with Mazars, Carrefour, L'Oréal, Accor Group and BETC, helping scale platform users from 1K to 10K.

I lead relationship-driven market expansion across Europe, MENA and the US, building partner-led distribution that reached 20,000+ employees. I joined EcoLearn as its first full-time hire, grew into global leadership, and managed a cross-functional team of four.

As founder of ThirdPlace, I'm building a consumer social startup for adult friendship and belonging at Station F. I run customer discovery, investor outreach, and AI-native GTM workflows using custom CRMs, dashboards, and prospecting systems.
