About


I’m a French-speaking, Australian-born British copywriter based in London and Paris. Throughout my career, ‘words’ have been at the heart of what I do.

For clients and businesses I add value, shift perceptions and communicate memorably. I bring experience across digital channels with a niche for social media. As a sideline, I make ceramics and electronic ambient music.
