View LinkedIn ProfileExecutive Overview
I joined Nestlé as Chief Financial Officer in 2024 and have the privilege of contributing to the growth of powerhouse brands that reach consumers in 189 countries around the world. Our purpose at Nestlé Finance is to truly support the business as an end-to-end commercial partner, participating in the business decisions that influence the leading indicators of growth to shape future P&Ls rather than reporting on history. We are passionate about growing our brands and impact. I’m also passionate about making the workplace an inclusive environment where all our employees can thrive and perform, opening the door for new talent to grow their career in a large and dynamic company like Nestlé. One area where I’ve worked to bring this to life is through the mentoring program NXT GEN Women in Finance, now in its third year.
