I’ve gotten over 20 Good and Featured Articles on the French-language edition of Wikipedia.

Diversity & Inclusion in Super Smash Bros. Melee

I started playing Melee at the end of 2015. In 2016, I became the community manager for LeFrenchMelee, the French Melee federation. In 2019, I became interim president of the organisation, and president in 2021.

I’ve organised two editions of the Eyes Open Conference in 2020 and 2021, a half-day conference about different issues with the goal to build "a better community, for everyone".

I was also a key coordinator for Smash Sisters and women-led spaces in Europe from 2016 to 2021.

Réussir Mes Études

I created my blog, Réussir Mes Études, on January 12, 2012. It became the leading French-language blog for students and still receives nearly 40 000 visitors per month. I announced the end of the project on January 12, 2022, although all content is still available on the website.
