Summary
As a consultant, I help companies define their digital strategy, from the blank page to the actual concept. I work essentially as a facilitator, focusing on making things easy, especially when they are very complex.
I also design, specify, occasionally develop and test. And provide handkerchiefs.
As a science journalist/podcaster, the easiest way to have an idea of what I do is to have a look at my weekly science audio podcast (in French) www.podcastscience.fm
