My Story

I’ve always been drawn to people and their stories. At just 11 years old, I was asked to be the MC at my uncle and aunt’s wedding. Standing in front of a room full of guests, guiding the evening and connecting with an audience, sparked something that has stayed with me ever since.

 

Having lived across four different countries (France, England, Switzerland, and Canada), I bring an international perspective to everything I do. These experiences have given me an insatiable curiosity about people, cultures, and the different ways stories are lived and told.

My background in journalism refined that curiosity into a craft: learning how to ask the right questions, listen closely, and uncover the narratives that often go unnoticed. This came to life most powerfully through my multi-award-winning documentary on visually impaired tennis and it's road to the Paralympics, a project that reinforced my drive to tell stories that deserve to be seen, heard, and understood.

 

In a world where content is increasingly automated and optimized, my work is built on the opposite principle: keeping the human at the center. I find that when you focus on people, you uncover stories that are not only relatable, but distinctive. Stories with texture, nuance, and perspective. The kind that algorithms can’t replicate.

That’s what I bring to brands and founders: a journalistic approach to storytelling, which captures real voices, real experiences, and real emotion to create narratives that resonate, inspire, and leave a lasting impact.
