France-born, California-raised, I spent my childhood binge-watching Netflix DVDs until, at 11, I knew—I wanted to make films. Back in France, I dove into cinema studies before cutting my teeth as a music video editor for artists like Kyo, Naive New Beaters, Tété, and Emmy Liyana.

A trip through Iceland and Kyrgyzstan with a DSLR sparked my love for documentary filmmaking, capturing raw beauty in natural light. In 2017, I earned a spot at Luc Besson’s prestigious film school, mastering the craft.

Since then, I’ve shot and edited for brands like Samsung, BiotechUSA, and Telethon, collaborated with artists like Noem and Barbara Butch, and brought personal projects to life—like a 53-minute deep dive into the world of mushrooms.
