I've always been passionate about music and sound. After a scientific baccalaureate (yes, I like numbers!), I continued my studies in audiovisual, graduating with a certificate in equipment exploitation technician at I.N.A. (french AV national institute). At the same time, I finished percussion classes at the Conservatory (and learned collective performance!).
Since 2002, I lead my career in the Pro-audio and M.I. sectors. From tech support to sales engineer then from product specialist to territory manager, I have worked for several distributors (e.g. JukeBoxLtd, Freevox) and supported numerous manufacturers (among others Universal Audio, SSL, AKG, Focal, Soundcraft, Ableton, JBL).
From 2016 to 2023, I consideratly increased my sales & marketing skills by managing sales for the french Native Instruments entity, then under the parent company 'Soundwide' (+ Izotope + Plugin Alliance) in different European territories, and through market changes...
In 2023, drawing on my experience, by creating LA MAJEUR, I wanted to offer a different business development model for European brands, while continuing to act in the field and offer my consulting services to companies and creators.
