I was born in Paris, France in 1965.
I began studying congolese and afro brasilian percussion in 1985.
In 1992, I studied afro cuban percussion with my master Orlando Poléo and I have been playing and teaching ever since. I played with a lot of salsa, jazz, Zouk, congolese rumba, funk groups in Paris and with Giovanni Hidalgo, Orlando Poléo, Mario " Aspirina " Jauregui and a french afrocuban folkloric group Iluyenkori.

I am teaching percussion in two schools in Paris since 1994 and I wrote a instructional book for the congas " Congas, Rythmes et Développements " in 1999. I work in the french drummer magazine " Batteur Magazine " since 1997. I am a " Latin Percussion " (LP) endorser and demonstrator since 1997.
