icon GLOBAL RETAIL

Compliance as a Product. Growth as a Result.

I have led multi-country retail rollouts for tier-1 brands, launching POS, fiscal middleware, and omnichannel journeys across 27+ countries with clear KPIs, fast cutovers, and zero-drama go-lives. Projects span grocery, fashion, convenience, and specialty, store-as-hub, click & collect, mobile POS, and real-time reporting that scale. My business concept is simple: turn compliance and architecture into a product, repeatable, measurable, and built to expand. I drive innovation through creative prototyping (phygital experiences, live shopping, AI agents) that moves from lab to store floor, quickly and reliably.
