From a young age I developed a passion for marine transportation and international trade. Its complexity, challenges and opportunties to travel meant it was an ideal career choice.

After attending international schools in Switzerland I attended University in the UK. The objective was to obtain a degree in shipping & logistics at an institution that had an international student body. In 2011 I graduated with a BSc Hons degree in Maritime Business & Logistics from the University of Plymouth with 2:1 Upper Class honors.

After graduation I started my career as a shipbroker trainee in Paris with BRS Shipbrokers and was transferred to the Geneva office in 2012. I developed key skills such as adaptability, communcation, negotiation and prospecting.

In 2019 I required a new challenge and wanted exposure to the Methanol industry. Moving to Brussels I joined Methanex in 2019 as a Supply Chain & Logistics Specialist. This provided visibility across the entire value chain from manufacturing to last mile delivery to customers. Project work in initiatives such as ship emergency response planning and Methanol bunkering helped develop my project management as well as leadership skills.

In 2022 I returned to Geneva rejoining BRS Shipbrokers to develop Methanol and time charter business with Japanese ship owners. This was an entrepreneurial phase where I learned the importance of developing a diverse portfolio of short term, long term and consultancy business to ensure robustness in market cycles.

Seeking to further diverisfy my experience I moved to the Netherlands in 2024 to work for SABIC. My current role as Category Manager for terminals, pipelines and surveying contracts in Europe has added procurement skills to my knowledge of the entire value chain.
