From video games to
product design
How a curiosity for technology led me from coding and digital project management to designing products around real user needs.
My story
I have been drawn to computers for as long as I can remember. It started with video games and YouTube videos, then gradually turned into a curiosity for how digital products work....
In high school, I took Digital & Computer Science and wrote my first code in Python, JavaScript, HTML and CSS. I knew I wanted to work in digital, but I did not yet know where I fit!
I chose a three-year Bachelor in Digital Project Management to explore different sides of digital creation, from marketing and strategy to graphic design, communication and development. The more I learned, the more one question kept coming back: who are we building this for?
I became increasingly interested in understanding users, defining their needs and translating those needs into clear digital experiences. That led me to a Master's in UX Design at ESD Paris.
There, I developed the foundations I use today: user research, interface design, wireframing, prototyping and design systems, while building a stronger understanding of how design fits into a broader product context.

Today at Moment
Mood is an entertainment platform designed for travelers on board planes and trains. I work closely with my Product Manager to turn product needs into clear, scalable and usable experiences.
My role goes beyond designing interfaces. From the moment a feature arrives , I help explore the problem, benchmark existing solutions, generate and challenge different directions, and turn the strongest ideas into a concrete design. I document the decisions behind the solution and work closely with my product manager and developers throughout implementation to make sure the final product stays aligned with the design.
I also integrate AI into this workflow from the earliest iterations. I use it to quickly generate and compare initial directions, challenge assumptions and identify weak ideas before investing time in them. This helps me explore more possibilities early while keeping the final design decisions grounded in product and user needs. I also use AI to structure documentation and specifications throughout the process.
My focus is on finding the right balance between user needs, product constraints and technical feasibility then turning that balance into interfaces that are clear, consistent and scalable.
My secondary passion
Creating has always mattered to me. Whether it's an interface or a graphic identity, I love the process of imagining something into existence.
Music has always played a big part in my life too : it shapes my mood every day! I enjoy almost every genre, because each one reveals a different side of creativity to explore and enjoy.
That curiosity eventually led me to producing electronic music, techno in particular, which I'm genuinely passionate about. I produce my own tracks, and I recently started DJing, a new way to share that same passion live!!
