About me
Who are you?
I am a resilient GenX who has built a fulfilling career in product management in tech for the last 25 years, driven by a deep desire to create meaningful change for people and organizations. I’ve had the privilege of working with some of the most respected companies in tech, sharing my expertise through speaking, coaching, and mentoring. While I’m proud of these accomplishments, they don’t define me entirely.
I’m a mother of two, a happy partner to Laurent, and someone who believes fiercely in fairness and equality. As a feminist and advocate for human rights, I stand firmly against discrimination in all its forms and work to create spaces where everyone can thrive. My life has been shaped by challenges, including overcoming cancer, and these experiences have given me strength, perspective, and gratitude.
I’m passionate about helping others grow—whether it’s by building better products, leading more effectively, or finding confidence in themselves. At the same time, I’m on my own journey of growth, focusing on my health, finding balance, and staying grounded in what truly matters. I strive to make a positive impact on the world around me with humility, curiosity, and a deep belief in the potential of people to achieve amazing things together.
What do you do for a living?
I am a consultant and coach, specialized in agile product management at scale. Mostly ;)

What are you the proudest of?
Might sounds cliché BUT i don't care : i am soooooo proud to have been able to birth two amazing individuals, instilling in them the values and strength I carry. I am proud of each day I've won from cancer, and to have consistently stayed true to myself. Taking risks, embracing growth, and worked tirelessly to help others—whether they’re my children, my peers, or the folks I coach - in making the world a little better.
