ABOUT

After business and cultural studies in Paris (HEC) and Vancouver (UBC), I spent 10 years in the music industry at Virgin / EMI France at various marketing and management positions.

I then spent 12 years at Morgane Groupe (independent TV & Live production), working on many topics, from business development (music content for telcocompanies), producing TV shows (for Disney Channel, M6, Arte, France Televisions…), producing live events (new festivals, award shows, opening ceremonies), until eventually serving as deputy general manager for the group.

I joined Spotify in June 2018, where I am now Managing Director for France and Benelux and am leading the teams to continued and sustained growth throughout the region while establishing durable partnerships with our key local stakeholders.

I’m addicted to music and sounds. My record collection / playlists range from A Tribe Called Quest to Frank Zappa, from Ethiopian jazz and Kenyan funk to Inuit throat singing, from Mdou Moctar to Claudine Longet.
