BEFORE
​Born in Hong Kong to a French mother and American father, I grew up in Northern California and Paris, generally identifying with international culture.
I studied industrial design at California State University, Long Beach. During college I lived abroad for one year in Shanghai, China to continue the Mandarin studies I had started in high school in France. With the certification earned at Jiao Tong University, I completed a double bachelor's degree in Mandarin Chinese.
During my last year of college, I met my first business partner in 2010 with whom I started Nimble Scooters, a company that designed and manufactured kick-scooters with built-in cargo space for transporting goods over short distances. In parallel, I also worked for a few other companies such as CG-Mobile and Brille24.de as a designer and creative strategist. Meanwhile, our California-based company Nimble Scooters grew and pivoted into making electric bikes, thus starting the Super73 in Spring of 2016.

This path led me to become familiar with the (electric) urban mobility scene in Paris and the United States. My network and understanding of the industry has since increased thanks in part to working on the first edition or the first urban mobility festival Autonomy Paris in 2016.
Extensive travel and the ability to pick up languages quickly enables me to be aware of the subtle cultural differences that make our world unique, a necessary skill for branding, strategic product launches and relationship building. I'm a natural connector. 

I love building things, whether it's companies, events, websites, dinner menus, and relationships. When i'm not riding bicycles, traveling or working on the computer, i'm most likely playing volleyball (preferably on the beach), meeting up with visiting friends, learning a new language or cooking.
