Creative Stategy for Brand Building + Expression.

And half of Thelma. A strategic design duo with Eloise Harris.

I navigate business challenges with a broad spectrum of brand-focused creative solutions.

Trilingual and with over a decade in advertising and design, my journey spans from the 99-Francs-inspired advertising scene in Paris to the rise and reckoning of Vice Media, and now six years (and counting) of freelancing with focus on design practices across the globe.

I am naturally drawn to forward thinking projects that promote culture, diversity, inclusivity and social change.

Approach +  Explorations
Ambiguities and paradoxes have always been my comfort zone—the space between reality and imagination, rational and intuition, clarity and chaos, security and risk, business and spectacle. That tension, I believe, is the essence of creative strategy.

My diverse set of interests fuels a non-traditional approach, borrowing from sci-fi ideas, historic concepts or other fields of interests to apply them creatively across disciplines and sectors.
