I create spaces for dialogue, cooperation and collective action, bringing institutions, communities and ideas together at the intersection of culture, education and technology. These experiences have progressively converged into a cross-cutting approach to SDGs 4, 13, 16 and 17. With 15+ years of experience across education, culture, digital transformation and international affairs, I build platforms and partnerships, curate cultural programmes, and use storytelling to foster understanding.
As Founder and Director of the Festival du Film Merveilleux et Imaginaire, I have developed international cultural cooperation, leading 15+ editions, programming films from 40+ countries, expanding the Festival’s international reach through screenings worldwide, and building partnerships with UNESCO, Google, Cannes pavilions, Alliance Française networks, French Institutes and foreign cultural institutes across Russia, India, Australia, Kazakhstan and the United States. Through the festival, I have designed cultural and educational programmes, including workshops and mentoring initiatives for young professionals, aligned with SDG 4 and the UNESCO 2005 Convention. As part of the Festival, I also created a programme of environmental awareness workshops using cinema and creative activities to engage audiences with sustainability challenges. I previously represented Dyslexia International at UNESCO Paris, advocating for inclusive education before national delegations and international committees.
My path also rests on a strong analytical and technological foundation. At Peermusic, I reconciled multi-source rights data and tracked discrepancies across international royalty flows. Since 2011, I have led and developed Cannes Digital, bridging cinema and technology with partners such as Cinando, Oculus and Viva Technology. Elected to the Board of the American Women’s Club of London, I served as Director of Technology, designing GDPR compliance, cybersecurity protocols and digital educational tools. I currently serve as Programs Manager at EMCC France, part of the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC Global), where I lead public affairs and digital transformation initiatives.
My academic background spans Education Sciences, cultural diplomacy, international relations and cinema.
My work focuses on intercultural dialogue, facilitation and the ways institutions and communities navigate different perspectives. I am particularly interested in intercultural dynamics and how emerging technologies are reshaping dialogue, cooperation and collective decision-making
