Un pied dans les lignes de code, l’autre sur les planches d’improvisation.
CTO chez LetReco le jour, explorateur de mondes imaginaires la nuit, il traverse les miroirs comme Alice au pays des merveilles, pour mieux mêler la rigueur des systèmes et la folie créative de la scène.

Auteur d’articles sur l’innovation et la culture tech, conteur d’expériences et semeur d’idées, j'aime révéler ce qui se trame derrière les coulisses des lignes de code… et rappeler qu’au fond, l’aventure est toujours collective.
