Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Mathilde
Freelance graphic designer and writer, I create publications that guide the reader and reflect your professionalism.
You have an editorial project and are looking for someone to handle both content and form, without needing follow-ups. This is what I've been doing for 25 years: my clients appreciate my responsiveness (response within the hour) and my absolute respect for deadlines.
I take your content and give it a form that inspires confidence: brochures, reports, presentation materials, newsletters. Documents that do the work for you when they land in front of a client or partner.
What I have done
At Edimark (medical press), layout of journals for hospital doctors and congress reports — documents where rigor, DTP, and readability are non-negotiable.
At Ginger (technical publishing), 40 books updated according to regulatory changes and design of a 90th-anniversary book (244 pages).
At Maison & Jardin magazine, writing interviews and advertorials — where pen and editorial sense meet.

🚀 What sets me apart
