About

I am building the future of payment and access control with The Ring by Many Touches, the first batteryless smart ring in Vietnam. Many Touches is a fintech company focused on removing friction from everyday actions, enabling people to pay, access buildings, and move through their daily lives more naturally. Before founding Many Touches, I built and operated businesses across Europe and Asia, from a traditional B2B company in the wine industry to leadership roles in fast-growing startups. I have worked across sales, business development, and expansion, including heading international growth in a scaling company. Earlier in my journey, I co-founded the French Student Association in China, leading a team of 30 students across multiple cities and organizing over 100 events in collaboration with embassies, chambers of commerce, and business leaders. That experience shaped how I think about leadership, execution, and building with limited resources. I have lived and worked in several countries including France, Germany, China, Vietnam, and more, and I operate comfortably in multicultural and multilingual environments. I speak French (native), English (fluent), Mandarin Chinese (advanced), and have a working knowledge of German. Today, I lead a team of 35 people in Vietnam, building products designed to disappear into daily behavior and make life simpler at scale.
