Jan 2025 – Present · 1 yr 3 mos

I lead a 100+ person global analytics organization at Expedia Group, partnering with Supply, Commercial and Partner Product teams across our Hotel, Vacation Rental, Air and Car lines of business to improve marketplace performance and partner outcomes. My team focuses on objectively measuring, prioritizing and optimizing the initiatives that matter most for our supply partners and for Expedia Group’s commercial goals.

I’m passionate about turning data into practical guidance that directly shapes strategy and execution.
Based in Geneva and working across regions, I concentrate on three things: building a coherent analytics strategy and operating model, enabling operational excellence in the field and our scalable channels (Marketing and Product), and developing outstanding analytics talent. I invest heavily in coaching, stretch opportunities and visibility for emerging leaders, and in evolving our analytics capabilities—including how we responsibly leverage AI—to increase impact for partners, travelers and Expedia Group.
