I am a French art historian. I was born and raised in the Latin Quarter of Paris. I studied in both New York and Paris, where I got my PhD in the History of Art in 2023 at the Sorbonne University. My Thesis examined french landscape paintings from the 17th century. In 2017, I obtained my Guide License from the Ministere de la Culture and have since been organizing tours in prominent museums throughout Paris, including the Louvre, Orsay, Pompidou, Versailles, Notre Dame, and Orangerie. Currently, I collaborate with curators at the Louvre and frequently compose exhibition catalogues and essays. My passion for imparting knowledge to visitors from diverse backgrounds remains steadfast.

    This was our second tour with Hugo, and it was just as amazing as the first tour. Hugo is so incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about art.
