Can speak French, Japanese and English, and has basics in Chinese and German.

Born in the south west of France in December 1979.

Starts theatre as an amateur from junior high school, and continues in High School (Bordeaux English International Highschool Lycee Francois Magendie, with a participation in the "European High School Theatre Festival in English" in the Netherlands in 1996) and University.

Passionated by Japan since childhood, starts to study Japanese at Bordeaux University (France) and moves to Japan in 2000 to study the language. While studying at university, starts to work as a model for Japanese magazines ("VOCE", "Tokyo 1 Shuukan"....), pamphlets and commercial posters.

At the beginning of 2001, the participation in the TV show "24 Nin no Katoh Ai" becomes the start on Japanese TV screens. Then follows many of appearances in TV Dramas such as "Ashita ga Arusa", "Yan Papa" or "Home & Away", and from 2002 main parts and guest-star parts in the theatre play "TokuDane yarou! Ee Team", prime-time TV Dramas ("Keitai keiji Zenigataai" and "Densetsu no Madame" - with Kaori Momoi -) and TV commercials as "Yamasaki Haru no Pan Matsuri", "Yanmar" or "NISSAN Amenio".

Although, the experience of participation in "Wasabi"'s movie shooting (2001-Luc Besson's production) as a crew member, and in 2002 in the Japanese production "Spy Sorge" as an actor and production coordinator orients his career mainly to movies, with acting parts in international-release movies as "Shimotsuma Monogatari" ("Kamikaze Girls") , "Odoru daisousasen 2" ("Bayside Shakedown 2") or "Out Of This World".

Works also as a lyrics writer for many TV programs and commercials songs, mainly collaborating with the famous singer Akino Arai. In 2004 starts also a career as Radio-DJ on Tokyo's main radio station:J-Wave, and from 2006, as a reporter for the worldwide broad casted "NHK World" channel program "Weekend Japanology", and as a movie commentator for the "CHIBA TV"'s channel program "Kinyou Tabloid".
