About

Born and bred in London to French and Mauritian parents, I’ve spent more than a decade living in Paris, reporting on culture, design, food and travel for publications including The New York Times, The Guardian, Monocle, BBC Travel, Condé Nast Traveller, Forbes, Wallpaper and The Telegraph. The years have brought many high points from travelling to far-flung destinations to interviewing artists, actors and chefs whose work I admire greatly like Anish Kapoor, Christian Boltanski, Olafur Eliasson, Huang Yong Ping, Takashi Murakami, Shepard ‘Obey’ Fairey, Isabelle Huppert, Mauro Colagreco, Nobu Matsuhisa and Alain Ducasse.

Previously, I have held roles as editor for several publications, including the former English-language online travel magazine of the Easyvoyage group, the bi-annual Paris edition of print luxury lifestyle magazine LUXOS, the English version of Vogue.fr and the Accor magazines Junction (Pullman), Moments (Fairmont) and Journeys (Raffles).

As well as journalism, I have also led long- and short-term social media strategy and copyediting projects for media publications Glamour, Madame Figaro, Les Echos and HiP Paris, and during my time at Publicis Luxe and Condé Nast France, I devised multi-channel strategies and content for brands within L’Oréal and LVMH portfolios.

More recently, I founded The Paris Press Agency, a bilingual editorial consultancy and content marketing agency, which specialises in crafting 360° content strategies for brands across online and offline platforms, as well as content in English, French, and other languages.
