Im a French freelance investigative journalist based in Brussels. As a datajournalist I’ve investigated French parliament members resumes, revolving doors or the unexpected projects French development aid money end up supporting. I also like to write about the industry, energy and environnement, I currently am quite obsessed with CCS and its lobbying. And I’m a member of the Association des journalistes pour la transparence, advocating for an improvement of FOI processes in France.
