ART DIRECTOR AND GRAPHIC DESIGNER

Free-lance

​
I was born in Paris where I studied general Design. Then I had a revelation when I went to England to follow my studies. I discovered Graphism and Typography, as a deep and powerfull  tool to express ideas.

I started my professional experience as Graphic Designer for Chevignon's. Then I joined the world of advertising for many years as Art Director, in several agencies like BETC, EURO RSCG, FCB, etc 

I worked on different kind of budgets, I directed photographs, stylists, made the layouts, controlled the qualitiy of printing.

Then I moved to Belgium, 13 years ago and discovored the incredible welcoming of the Brusselers. I worked for more advertising agencies as an Art Director.

When I had my two daughters, I decided to get away from Advertising for a while. ​As I had a very old friend living in India for years, I had the opportunity to travel over there and start to design clothes in the school they created. The idea that I really enjoyed was to match creation and ethic, as the school is part of the ONG "Children of the World". Creation with consciousness. 

I met extraordinary people in India, with incredible capacities to work on embroidery and artyfacts.

For any economic reasons I decided to stop the indian adventure and came back to Advertising, and Graphic Design.

Then I had the opportunity to work as consultant for the Media

support, as Art Director and Graphic Designer, for galleries, which I enjoyed a lot. And for now, I work on the launch of a secret project... 

I love to work on layouts, posters, logos, corporate identities, and many more.
