Biography

A childhood dream born in the Vendée Globe village.

I was born on 11 January 2007 in Lyon. After moving to the Paris region at 7, I discovered sailing and offshore racing in my last year of primary school, on a class trip to the Vendée Globe 2016 village in Les Sables d’Olonne. A childhood dream was born. I then learned to sail at Les Glénans, Europe’s leading sailing school, alongside demanding studies in the Paris region.

At 17, I took my first steps in offshore racing, discovering the Mini 6.50 through several training sessions and deliveries. I also took on internships and volunteer work preparing race boats in every class.

At 18, I joined the University of Southampton to study naval architecture, following in the footsteps of great names in racing and yacht design on the best course in the world in this field. I race regularly on the Solent and Channel circuits, building valuable racing and performance experience. At 19, I sailed an IMOCA, the Vendée Globe boats, for the first time, and the dream became real.

I am now launching the preparation of my Mini Transat project, with three more years of studies, racing and training ahead.
