I joined Nokia in November 2007, just before finishing my PhD related to mobile phone and Identity. I did my Phd in Psychology in joint supervision between the University of Caen in France and The University of Joensuu in Finland, which means that I graduated from both universities at the same time. I was born and raised in a small village in Normandy called Honfleur, and moved to Finland in 2002.

I am mostly interested in people, and more specifically in user experience and design. So far I have been involved in many projects related to Avatar, Image Space, playfulness involving tasks such as understanding, creating and measuring user experience.
