"With over 20 years of experience, I transform technological complexity into business performance in international environments."
People first
Technology is just a tool serving organizations and the people who compose them. Too many IT projects fail not due to lack of technical skills, but due to lack of human support.
My approach places respect for teams at the heart of every transformation. This means listening before prescribing, co-building rather than imposing, and supporting long-term rather than delivering and leaving.
This conviction has shaped my practice for over 20 years, in environments as varied as international logistics, maritime transport and highway infrastructure.
Listening & Empathy
Understanding context, constraints and team aspirations before any intervention.
Pragmatism
Favoring solutions that work in business reality, not in textbooks.
Knowledge Transfer
Transferring skills and autonomy to teams for lasting impact.

Interests
Alongside my IT consulting work, I am a professional photographer specializing in art photography. This dual expertise fuels my creativity and unique perspective on organizations.
One thing never changes in my photography: highlighting the humble. Famous monuments give way to the simplest living spaces. My palaces are found in the dark alleys of the city. Thus I invite viewers to fight against nihilism and social violence by turning their gaze toward the intrinsic beauty of everyday life.
