About Candice

Are you looking for a partner who can manage your marketing projects, strengthen your brand, or provide strategic insight while remaining highly operational?

I help brands transform their strategy into strong brand experiences, bridging the gap between strategy, creation, and execution.

With nearly 20 years of experience at Levi's Europe, I support companies in the development and evolution of their brand. Depending on your needs, I can act as a consultant, Brand Marketing Manager, or senior project manager, quickly integrating into your teams.

I have managed international marketing campaigns, product launches, creative productions, and brand transformation projects, collaborating with Marketing, Product, Design, Retail, Digital, E-commerce, and Communication teams, as well as agencies and partners.

My strength lies in connecting strategic vision with its implementation. I combine expertise in Brand Marketing, creative sensibility, and complex project management. I can also act as a Brand Guardian to evolve your brand's image, challenge creative concepts, and ensure the consistency of its identity across all touchpoints.

Above all, I enjoy orchestrating projects: uniting teams, creating alignment, and transforming a vision into concrete achievements.

I specialize in:
• Brand Strategy & Brand Marketing
• Product Launches & Go-to-Market
• 360° Marketing Campaigns
• Direction and production of photo & video content
• Brand Guardianship & brand image evolution
• International Marketing, Retail, Wholesale & E-commerce
• Coordination of teams, agencies, and partners
• Management of complex projects, budgets, and timelines

Whether it's to accelerate a launch, strengthen a team, cover a manager's absence, or support a brand transformation, I bring senior, international, and immediately operational expertise.
