Me



Hello and thank you for checking out my portfolio.

These are some of my favorite projects in the past 5 years and I’m constantly looking forward to update them with fresher, better and bigger ones. I am a French expat (ten countries and counting, full list below) currently based in Dubai working at Leo Burnett Dubai as a senior art director. If you have any questions or just want to say hello, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Cheers!
