I am an Intellectual Property counsel and a specialist in IP strategy, guiding clients from A to Z. One goal drives my passion for IP: the creation of brand and business value.

I deliver a broad range of IP services covering all fields of IP, including trademarks, copyrights, neighbouring rights, image rights, designs and models, patents, trade secrets, and domain names, as well as all related business issues: IP audits, IP rights clearing, acquisition of IP rights, worldwide IP portfolio management, and IP exploitation and monetization, including licensing, co-branding, and national and international co-productions.

I have longstanding experience serving national and international clients in Media (music, TV, film, advertising), Fashion, Design, Retail, Food, Household, and Beverages, and many other creative and innovative sectors, as all have intellectual property to take care of.

I served on the Belgian Council for Intellectual Property for almost 16 years, I am a third-party decider on domain name disputes with the Belgian Centre for Arbitration and Mediation (CEPANI), and a visiting professor at the Antwerp Management School (AMS), where I’ve taught for many years in the Master in International Fashion Management and continue to teach in the Summer School on Fashion, Law & Ethics, including the EU strategy for sustainable and circular textiles.

I’ve been repeatedly recognized as an IP expert by leading legal guides: named "a name to note" by Legal 500, a "leading TMT practitioner" by Women in Business Law, praised for "exceptional experience working with clients from the press, cinema, audio-visual production, and film sectors" by Media Law International, and named an "IP Star" by Managing Intellectual Property.
