About Me
Travel industry is my life : I have experienced most of the activities in this industry, in Travel agency, Airport, Airline, Tour Operator and Global distribution System, from Commercial, Retailing, Marketing, to Product definition, Product and now Portfolio management.
I am passionate about Travel technology, IT mobile solutions for Travellers, wearable’s innovations and their applications.
Dreaming up how the travel industry will adapt to the new economy of sharing, and innovative ways to use technology to solve real business problems is what keeps me up at night. I love working on the global level, across cultures, customs, and continents.
I also love collaborating with customers and colleagues on new ideas.
My interest for the Asia Pacific markets, and specially China, is leading my motivation to graduate for the next HSK level 3, Challenge !
My other passion is to travel on a sailing boat anytime and anywhere possible !
