Prior to joining White Star Capital, I spent over ten years as an investment banker with JPMorgan, BNP Paribas and Rothschild in London, New York and Paris. I co-founded a tech-focused M&A boutique during this period, advising entrepreneurs and investors on fundraising and exit strategies. I also co-founded Isograd.com, a French software company providing recruiters and training firms certification on numerous computer skills, and have also been an active business angel in France and in the US over the past 5 years.

I hold a Master’s degree in Business Strategy and Corporate Finance from HEC Paris. I am a French native, speak English and German fluently and have a professional knowledge of Spanish.

I am an avid runner, be in town through long distance running and marathon or trailing in the mountains. I also spend time at home cooking for my kids and my friends.

My favourite writers include Stefan Zweig, Milan Kundera and Marcel Proust. My music taste range from JS Bach to Joao Gilberto, Daft Punk, Barbara, Nina Simone… As for movies, I would name Stanley Kubrick (Barry Lyndon on top of it), Tim Burton, Ettore Scola… Damn, I am totally outdated!
