Saint-Martin
I spent my childhood between Aix and the Merlan district in Marseille. The latter, a mosaic city, surrounded by its hills and drenched in light, remains a permanent source of inspiration! First trained in animation cinema, I evolved towards directing, both institutional and fictional. I then took acting classes and directed plays. Then writing caught my attention: theatrical at first, then cinematographic. My projects today: the writing of 2 feature films. Finally, I am the happy father of a little boy since last May.
