Portrait

After successfully obtaining my journeyman’s certificate in 2014 at the traditional violin making school in Klingenthal, I gained my first experience in violin and double bass making in Markneukirchen. From 2015 to 2017, I was able to deepen this knowledge in renowned violin making workshops in the cultural city of Leipzig. Afterwards, several collaborations and work experiences with internationally high-ranking ateliers from the south to the north of France, including with Yair Hod Fainas in Paris, allowed me to expand my knowledge of the world of violin making, before I was able to perfect my skills and knowledge to a world level in upscale instrument restoration at Alexandre Snitkovsky’s atelier in Lyon. In 2021, I passed my Master Luthier exam in Hallstatt, Upper Austria, and then moved to the cradle of world violin making, the town of Cremona, to work there and strengthen my knowledge and links, at the roots of the craft, with the greatest violin makers in the history of the world.

Since 2025, I have been welcoming musicians from all horizons (national and international) to my workshop in Marseille, in Provence, with the primary aim of offering instruments that combine richness of sound, expressiveness, durability and playing comfort.
