Born in 1995[7], he began doing music independently while studying at HEC Paris and released his debut EP in 2017[8]. His musical work was mentioned by several media, in France[9][10][11][12] and in English-speaking countries[13][14].
In 2017, he published the satire book 'Le Camp' under the pseudonym of Nathan Comons[15], based on his student experience at HEC Paris. His novel was widely reported by French media, including L'Obs[3], Le Bondy blog[16], Mediapart[17], France Culture[18], Radio France Internationale[6] and Sud Radio[19]. He debated with Jean-Michel Blanquer, Minister of National Education and former director of ESSEC Business School on Public Sénat[5] about his book and higher education, especially business schools.

During the Me Too movement, he said in L'Obs that he had been the victim of sexual harassment and claimed that boys -i.e. not only girls- were also affected by this major problem.[21]
