& more

From hardware to specialized web sysadmin, it was first by passion, then within the hosting company HaiSoft, that I was able to develop richer and more rigorous skills. After working for the web agency Force Interactive, I went on to develop my own business, hosting and managing WordPress sites.

I'm passionate about server optimization and security. My favorite natural occupation: analyzing, solving and preventing problems. This leads me to implement a wide range of technical solutions, from scripting and workflow changes to network infrastructure, software solutions, service implementation, communication and customer documentation.

Mixing

I've been involved in music and MAO since I was a teenager, and after graduating from the SAE, I specialize in post-production, particularly music mixing. As an aspiring artist myself, contact with colleagues is always pleasant.

For reasons of time and money, I'm currently working privately (mixing, live and composing), primarily for pleasure, in my spare time.
