Biography
I was born in Lens (Pas-de-Calais) in 1993.
I'm bilingual in French and English, and speak fluent Portuguese.
When I was fifteen, I spent a year as an exchange student in Michigan, after which I wanted to continue my studies in the USA. Thanks to a scholarship, I was able to do my undergraduate studies at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. There, I pursued a double degree in Architecture and Film Studies, which enabled me to develop skills in drawing, 3D modeling, animation, filming, set management and screenwriting. Back in France, I joined the Master Scénario program at Paris-Nanterre University, graduating in 2017. In 2024, I took the Documentary Writing course at La Fémis.
Since then, I've been working as a writer, script supervisor and graphic designer alongside my directing projects. My film projects focus on restrained, introverted characters, male tenderness and sexual minorities. I'm increasingly experimenting with images borrowing from dreams, architecture and pornography.
