Résumé
:waving_hand: Hello! I am a fashion and interior design curation and assortment specialist based in Los Angeles and Paris.
Born and raised in Paris and after an academic background in business and fashion, I made my debut in retail buying for Parisian luxury houses. In 2015 I founded the iconic Parisian store Gang of Earlybirds, known for being a true pioneer in selecting and introducing in Europe new and desirable designers from the USA and around the world.
After 10 years of experience in fashion, merchandising and e-commerce, mainly in Paris, I am now relocating with my family in Los Angeles, California.
Today, I provide curation and assortment consulting services in fashion and interior design industry to privates, professionals and brands.
