ABOUT ME

Originally from an island named Corsica, France,

I began learning character animation at Gobelins L'École de L'Image in 2012. After interning at Illumination Studios in the summer of 2013 and graduating from Gobelins the same year, I joined Illumination Studios as a Character Animator. During these wonderful 8 years, I had the chance to work on films such as Minions (2015), The Secret Life of Pets (2016), Despicable Me 3 (2017), Dr. Seuss' The Grinch (2018), The Secret Life of Pets 2 (2019), Sing 2 (2021), and Minions: The Rise of Gru (2022).

In addition to my work at Illumination, I had the honor of working side by side with Glen Keane on the entire development of the Trash Truck Pilot (2017).

 

​In 2018, I directed my own award-winning animated short film named KAAL 

​

 

I also have the pleasure of being a regular guest teacher at Gobelins.​

 

In 2019, I began working on my Green Card Visa (self-petition) to eventually join the US animation industry, which I had been dreaming about forever.

After two and a half years of hard work, I finally obtained my Green Card.

A few weeks later, Pixar Animation Studios hired me to join the Animation Department.

Since joining Pixar, I've worked on Lightyear (2022), Elemental (2023), Elio (2025), and lately on Inside Out 2, set to release in 2024.

 

​This page is an opportunity to show my love for animation and filmmaking and to finally share my work after spending years behind my computer screen.​

 

Today, I am available for new opportunities and continue my journey as a character animator who is dedicated to making people keep dreaming.​​
