As a curator, I produced HU1 (2016), a dance event for Hull Dance in a warehouse, programming Nora, Spaceboy and James Morgan.

I grew up in Paris and Madrid before moving to London in 2005 where I trained at London Contemporary Dance School / The Place and Central School of Speech & Drama with an MA in Performance Practice and Research.

Co-founder of Limbic Productions I collaborated with Iris Muel between 2011 and 2014, fusing neuroscience and design to create interactive games and puzzles.

Nowadays I am a sessional lecturer at London Contemporary Dance School and I regularly teach in diverse institutions (Centre de Formation Désoblique in Lyon, Le Pacifique / CDCN de Grenoble, CND Lyon, CNSMD…).

Since 2018 I have led, with Benjamin Coyle, a research program in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, organising Cellule D’essai a series of collective and interdisciplinary evenings of experimentation. I am also part of Le Croiseur’s directing committee which supports emerging dance artists in Lyon.
