About.

Film & TV Producer & Director

Videographer

I hold a Bachelor in Visual Communication and a Master in Cinema Aesthetic from La Sorbonne, Paris.

After freelancing as a Photographer and Videographer in France and South-Australia, I worked in film distribution at Garage Entertainment, and quickly moved into production, where I worked in different roles (producing, editing, directing).

I joined THIS. Film Studio in 2018 and have since been working as a producer, director and editor.

Some of my projects include: Skategoat (Netflix), Save This Rhino 1&2 with Kevin Pietersen (National Geographic), Save This Shark with Mick Fanning (National Geographic), MUM (Netflix), The Four Seasons of the Search (Rip Curl Series).

I got nominated for the B&T 30 under 30 Award in 2019 and won the M&C Saatchi Maurice Award the same year.

I now live in Apt, France, where I’m available for any type of filming and editing work.
