BIOGRAPHY

My journey with lute making started in 2006 when I had the opportunity to build my first lute with Didier Jarny, a master luthier who lives in Tours, France. On that occasion, I could discover the beauty of these musical instruments and the world of Early Music.

​

Following this first experience in making instruments, I continued my courses in cabinet making and graduated with a DMA (Diploma in Arts and Crafts) "Habitat" in 2010. Afterward, I enrolled in a design school where I created the "Daily life musical instruments" project on the theme of the hybridization between musical instrument making and object design. This project allowed me to obtain a Master's Degree in Art and Design in 2014.

​

After working for a few years in the field of design, I decided to turn entirely towards the craft of luthier and carried out an advanced training with Didier Jarny, who had made me discover lutes 12 years ago.

​

Life then led me near Nancy (in the east of France) where I set up my workshop in 2019.
