I'm Antoine.

I design, teach and build digital products, always starting from the same place: listening to people.

A cognitive engineer by training, I've spent thirteen years across user research, design and product leadership: consulting firms, large groups, and two startups I co-founded. Today I teach at Gobelins and Sorbonne Nouvelle in Paris, I coach teams and individuals, and I build my own apps.

My professional background, mission by mission →

“Behind every emotion, there is a need. Learning to listen to it makes life easier.”

100+: talks, classes and workshops since 2015
20: conference talks and panels
15: master's theses mentored at Gobelins
8: project juries
