Marketing

My academic journey started with a professional baccalaureate in commerce, followed by a preparatory year in art school to develop my artistic culture.

Combining marketing with artistic creation, I pursued a Bachelor's in Game Design at ESMA (Rennes) and am currently completing a Master's in Game Design at Rubika Supinfogame.

Throughout my studies, I've gained expertise in programming, 3D, marketing, and game design. This diverse skill set allows me to understand and address the challenges of different studio departments, ensuring relevant and impactful proposals.

As a Game Designer, I take an analytical approach, emphasizing a thorough understanding of the target audience through extensive research.
