Foreign languages ​​open up a world of possibilities! After completing my higher education at Langues’O, specializing in Russian and Chinese, I joined a professional publishing group in 1988 as an editorial assistant. There, I discovered the world of journalism and the pioneering days of desktop publishing. Eight years later, having become publishing director and art director for six magazines, I further honed my graphic design skills through professional training courses at the CFJ (Centre de Formation des Journalistes) in Paris, before embarking on a freelance career. As a freelancer, I have created the visual identity for various trade shows and projects, designed and revamped logos, layouts, brochures, and leaflets for a range of organizations and companies, developed the graphic identity for websites, and created automated layout solutions for directories and catalogs. My dual roles as a journalist and graphic designer, combined with my passion for striking visuals and beautiful typography, give me an eclectic and comprehensive perspective on my profession. I have been a member of the Maison des Artistes (House of Artists) since 1997.
