About

I am journalist based in Lille, France, at the moment, and just come back from a 15-month adventure in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. On this site, you will find my blog and portfolio from my 3-year career in journalism. I am currently looking for a job and am also available for freelance work.

My career goal is to remain in a creative and leading role while exploring all sorts of media. My passion is first for writing and storytelling, while I also have an interest in film, photography, technology and the online world (blogging, social networks and all ‘geek’ activities). My favorite writing topics include the environment, development and human rights, foreign affairs and traveling.

I moved to Cambodia shortly after graduation to work as a reporter for an English-language national daily newspaper. There, I covered among other things the border dispute between Cambodia and Thailand, the Khmer Rouge international tribunal and impunity surrounding sex crimes against children. My articles on this latter topic inspired the next documentary film by Sundance award-winning director Kim Dong-won, on which I worked as an assistant producer. During my three years of study in Missouri, I worked as a local journalist, covering the religion beat, elections, breaking news and other things. I also had the privilege of reporting on the recovery of the city of New Orleans a year after hurricane Katrina. I was managing editor on a bilingual monthly magazine and assistant city editor on a community daily, as well.

I come from all over, mostly Epinal, but also Dijon, Alençon, Lille and Fort-de-France for France; Montclair (NJ), Columbia (MO) and Santa Cruz (CA) in the States; and most recently, Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
