Summary

From a young age, growing up in a family of photographers, I have been passionate about the visual and decoration industries. I began my career at 18 as an assistant stylist at Elle magazine and Maison et Jardin, where I crafted stunning stories and environments. This early experience shaped my journey, leading me to where I am today: creating beautiful decor and showcasing exquisite merchandise to inspire well-being and desire in customers.
