About

I’m a French video editor with experience in television, web, and social media. I have edited over 1,500 videos for French media, including France Télévisions and Arte, delivering content on schedule and managing multilingual reports in collaboration with bilingual journalists.

I worked at Innervision, contributing to post-production for Arte’s weekly and web-only shows in four languages (FR, DE, ES, EN), handling sound editing, graphic effects, and language-specific overlays.
I have also worked with the association Les Puits du Désert, editing videos for partnerships with Le Mont Roucous and schools to promote access to clean water and education in Mali.

I am a member of the Kino film association, where I participate in volunteer short film projects and, with other members, take part in the 48-hour regional short film competition. I also worked as an editor on a no-budget short film for the Arte Women documentary competition.

My career has included international experience, such as in Tokyo for the denim brand Okayama Denim. I am now looking to broaden my work by exploring other formats, including documentary and fiction projects.
