    Jul 2023 — Present · Mumbai, IN

    In my current role, I architect the core Advocacy and Influence framework for L’Oréal Luxe India, which includes brands like Lancôme, Kiehl’s, and YSL Beauty. I define and implement benchmarks for Share of Influence, Share of Engagement, and Share of Voice, significantly elevating brand visibility. I cultivate strategic relationships with key opinion leaders and media to amplify our brand presence and drive brand growth and loyalty through innovative experiential activations.Achievements: I successfully launched YSL Beauty’s male fragrances, securing a Top 5 category placement within the first year.
