Attentive and proactive, I am mobile and versatile.
Based in many cities (Paris, Montpellier, Marseille, Lyon, and Toulouse), I am a jack-of-all-trades. Whether it's ensuring the direction, video, and sound recording of your projects, I can work independently or as part of a team. Very rigorous, I strive to be discreet, attentive, and efficient. I work with the goal of communicating effectively, my approach being to find ways to express what you want to say through images.

Types of audiovisual projects I have worked on:
- Documentaries (TV and VOD)
- Events (live, concerts, shows, conferences, trailers, and aftermovies)
- Real Estate (individuals, companies, public)
- Corporate Films (reports, making-of, congresses)
- Advertisements (fashion, sports, culinary, telephony)
- Music Videos (music, dance)

Equipment:
- Sony A7sIII
- Sigma Art / Sony G Zoom Lenses
- Atomos Monitor
- Ronin Stabilizer (with HF relay rig)
- Zoom F Sound Recorders
- Sennheiser h/f Microphone Kits - Neumann & Audio Technica Shotguns
