In search of texts to reveal
To explore their depths,
to refine their truth

About the work

Publishing student at UCL, with a background in history, poetics, and theories of French-language literatures. As a writer and junior researcher, I am drawn to works in progress—their construction and what makes them necessary.

Read. Analysis. Reveal.

I see editing as a practice of attention to what makes a text necessary. To read is first to understand what a text is trying to do, both in its composition and in the relationship it establishes between form and content. I place particular importance on what makes each text unique.

My approach is both analytical and intuitive, adapting to the nature of the text and to what it needs in order to express itself with precision. For me, rewriting is a space for dialogue with the author: a form of support grounded in suggestion, which respects both creative freedom and the singularity of the work.

I am particularly interested in writing rooted in the real, in narratives of trauma, and in decolonial perspectives, where literature becomes a means of working through and transforming reality. For me, a text does not simply state—it questions: a form, a reality, or the self.
