I was born in France in the mid-80s.
The guitar has always been present in my life. My father had an old Spanish classical guitar which sat in our living room when I was little, I learned my first notes there.
Continuing to play the instrument diligently, I completed a bachelor’s degree in micromechanics. This marks the beginning of my interest in precision work and the rigor that this implies. So I naturally started repairing and tuning my own guitars.
It was in 2011 that I decided to immigrate to Canada and that’s when I had the revelation for guitar making, I wanted to make it my life.
I then completed 3 years of college training at the Bruand guitar making school, located on the South Shore of Montreal, where I learned the basics of the profession thanks to a team of passionate teachers.
At the same time, I quickly joined the La Corde collective of luthiers, which allowed me, through contact with the luthiers on site, to expand my knowledge and receive my first custom guitars orders.
I graduated in 2015 with honors and began my career as a professional guitar maker. I therefore participate in numerous international guitar shows while continuing to improve my technique and my knowledge in guitar making.
I have since built several dozen instruments that are played by musicians around the world and continue every day to deliver the best of my know-how in the manufacture of high-end guitars.
I am also a teacher at the Bruand school and it gives me great pride to be able to pass on my knowledge.
