My Job
I lead public affairs and advocacy strategies for corporate clients and trade associations, mainly in the FMCG, food and sustainability sectors.
My role combines policy expertise and communications. I support
clients in positioning themselves effectively with EU institutions and key stakeholders. I regularly brief senior leadership on political priorities, risk exposure and engagement opportunities. Beyond strategy design, I oversee implementation: organising high-level events, coordinating media outreach, and developing advocacy tools. I lead several pan-European projects, coordinating public affairs input from European capitals. In addition, I manage and mentor a team and lead internal initiatives, including diversity and inclusion.
My Experience
I have over 10 years of experience in EU public affairs, with a strong focus on sustainability, retail, food and product policy.
Before joining Edelman in 2019, I was a Product Policy Advisor at EuroCommerce, where I managed retailer committees, built consensus among members, monitored EU legislative developments, and represented the sector in public and stakeholder forums.
Earlier in my career, I worked at Grayling in Brussels as a Public Affairs Manager. There, I managed key accounts in the food, fisheries and energy sectors, provided strategic policy advice, and designed and implemented advocacy campaigns. I also supported communications activities, including events and media relations.
And before all that, I worked in advertising in Paris!
My Specialisms
My Proudest Achievements
My proudest achievement is building teams that deliver excellent results while genuinely enjoying working together. In high-pressure public affairs environments, I believe maintaining trust, humour and solidarity is key. Combining top-level client service with a team culture people want to be part of is what I value most in my career.

My Interests outside work
I would read almost anything that isn’t a self-help book, knitting (my next advocacy campaign will be for knitting needles to be accepted through airports’ security), travelling to my hometown in the South of France when I get the chance.
My Favourite Brussels anecdote
The last time I walked into a MEP’s office with a client, we were warmly welcomed with a generous display of products from their main competitor.
