I was born in Lausanne, I lived in Zurich, Hamburg and New York, and I am currently living in Geneva.  

 

My professional career began with training as a photographer in Zurich. I developed my creativity and my sense of image construction of which from 2009 onwards led me to realize digital collages. These are in the form of framed pictures that I expose regularly or as illustrations used for various topics. I also animate them to create small video clips or teasers. And additionaly I started to create decorative objects illustrated with my collages.  

 

After my training as a photographer, I worked for 9 years at the Rote Fabrik cultural center in Zurich where I worked in several areas such as the organizing of exhibitions and concerts, including the management of budgets and crew. I was also a photographer during cultural events.  

 

Throughout the year 2002, I carried out an internships at the die Zeit newspaper in Hamburg as well as at the Matrix and Magnum agencies in New York. Back in Switzerland, I obtained a job as an iconographer at the magazine Femina, where I stayed for 12 years. I was then able to deepen my skills as an iconographer in the field of the news press by working for a year as a photo editor at the newspaper Le Matin.  

 

In 2017, I completed CAD training with Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign at Cadschool, whilst continuing training with video post-production, including learning Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, as well as an internship with the company Actua Films in Geneva.  

 

I also took a course in digital communication / web marketing and a course of web site design on Wix platform.  

 

I am offering my services in the areas of my skills in post production, illustration, video animation or iconography.

Don't hesitate to contact me for more information or any ideas of collaboration.
