About

I am a writer, screenwriter and copywriter based in Lausanne, Switzerland. I’m the author of the underground fiction trilogy Le Chien, and I have been writing short stories and poetry for the last 15 years. I have penned hundreds of film, exhibition, and theatre reviews for various publication (Article 60, Ciné-Feuilles, Scènes Magazine, etc.). I was a writer-in-residence at the El MoVe literary residency in Monte Verita in 2023 with Alejandro Jodorowksy.

My short stories Apparitions were published in Archipel no. 46 in November 2024. I am now focused on writing films for the production company Sabotage in Switzerland, and I’m working as a professional advertising copywriter.

I can read, speak and write in French, English, Japanese and German.
