About me

I am a Senior Client Service & Commercial Strategy Leader with over 10 years of international experience driving global client growth and managing high-value CPG portfolios. Throughout my career, I have led cross-functional agency teams to deliver integrated digital solutions across EMEA and MENA regions. My expertise lies in aligning advertisers, agencies, and platform teams around clear growth objectives to deliver measurable business impact at scale.

Previously, I served as an Industry Manager at Google, specializing in full-funnel video ecosystems, commercial partnerships, and data-driven investment strategies. I have a proven track record of securing multi-million-euro joint business plans and driving significant commercial revenue growth through strategic partnerships and performance marketing.

I excel at designing and leading cross-channel digital performance strategies, boosting return on ad spend (ROAS) through structured A/B testing and weekly optimization rhythms. My approach integrates marketing mix modeling, brand lift studies, and incrementality analyses to improve acquisition efficiency and steer investment decisions.

My leadership experience includes managing digital transformation projects and holistic agency deliverables for major clients such as Johnson & Johnson, Mattel, and Coca-Cola. I have successfully shifted traditional linear TV investments toward digital and YouTube ecosystems, achieving substantial media efficiency improvements and brand consideration lifts.

I am passionate about leveraging data-driven insights and innovative marketing strategies to drive client success and commercial growth. Fluent in English, Dutch, and Arabic, with conversational skills in French and German, I thrive in multicultural environments and enjoy collaborating with diverse teams to achieve shared goals.
