I’m a Film and Digital Producer based in Paris, France. I manage projects from scriptwriting to post-production, coordinating creative teams, budgets, and schedules while implementing innovative digital workflows to boost efficiency and creativity. I founded Les Films de Joy, a production company dedicated to auteur cinema and socially conscious storytelling. My recent feature film, When the World Will Look at Us (co-produced with AT2 Films, and Sombrero,), explores school bullying and is set for release in 2026. Before that, I worked at Jellysmack, where I collaborated with top international creators such as PewDiePie and MrBeast, developing strong expertise in digital strategy and cross-platform storytelling. Fluent in French, and English, I bring both artistic sensibility and production precision to every project I take on.
