Creative Screenwriter with 20 years’ experience in the Film and Television industry, both in France and in Australia, I am passionate about being part of creative teams who bring to life concepts and life-changing characters.

My work is story centred, with a focus on plot problem solving and character development. I developed successful animated TV series including ‘Vic the Viking’ (Network 10), ‘Heidi’ (Nine Network), ‘Tashi’ (ABC) and ‘The Wild Adventures of Blinky Bill’ (Channel Seven) and also wrote for Channel Seven’s iconic Australian series ‘Home and Away’.

I have worked for local and international production companies such as Channel Seven, Flying Bark, Essential Media, TF1 and Studio 100 Animation.

Four years ago, I was given the opportunity to give back to the creative community and I now mentor students of the UTS B.Des. in Animation in Sydney, leading two student teams to be nominated for the AACTA Awards in 2018 and in 2019.


I am also a fervent film buff and participates in various shows, both in French and English, such as Cinemascape and SBS French Radio.
