I am a 24-year-old video journalist and producer with experience on television and YouTube. Born and raised in France, I am fascinated by American culture and have worked and studied in the U.S. Since 2016, I’ve been creating videos on my YouTube Channel focused on this specific topic, including full-length documentaries, explanatory journalism, and on-location reports.
After finishing my exchange program at the State University of New York at New Paltz, I participated in the Disney College Program at Walt Disney World in Florida. After returning to France, I joined the country’s #1 independent production company, called Bangumi, to work as a journalist and producer on their daily talk show Quotidien. It is the most-watched talk show in France and features news decryption, political satire, interviews, and comedy. In the past two and a half years, I got to co-produce hundreds of daily segments and co-direct a full-length documentary. After two seasons, I got promoted to produce and host my own segment twice a week. My experience has made me a swiss-army knife of production, with skills in research, writing, editing, project management, and more.
