Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I am Léa Andrieu, a consultant specializing in structuring and transforming creative projects into concrete and profitable products.

With 6 years of experience in management, industrialization, and complex project management for clients like Chanel and Louis Vuitton, I help creators and young brands (leather goods, accessories, textiles) transform their ideas into production-ready collections.

My role is to help you organize your creative stages, structure your processes, plan your prototypes and production, and track your budgets and deadlines. Through clear support documents, schedules, and personalized guidance, you save time, gain peace of mind, and increase your chances of success.

I offer tailor-made missions, in person or via video conference, adapted to the size of your project and your objectives. Whether for a pilot project or a complete collection, my support allows you to move from concept to production with method and efficiency.

Do not hesitate to contact me to receive my detailed commercial brochure.
