After living in Paris and Marseille, she now resides in Geneva.

As an actor, he has notably collaborated with Jean-Pierre Mocky, appearing in several of his films, including Intrusions (2008), Le Dossier Toroto (2011), Calomnies (2014), Votez pour moi (2017), and Tous flics! (2022), often portraying civil servants or authority figures.
His acting career predates his directorial work and includes roles in iconic films such as Nikita (1990) by Luc Besson, La Belle Histoire (1992) by Claude Lelouch, and The Man in the Iron Mask (1998).
