And much more...

I had my first freelance marketing mission in 2014 during my studies, and kept freelancing around for 2 years before focusing on my classes. I graduated in 2018 and started over as a freelancer. I was an indie game blogger for one year, on my personal website and beloved IndieWatch. And I also did marketing stuff for companies in accounting (SEO articles), a Made in France products fair (Community management), travel blogs, Web design (SEO, SEA, emailing and a bit of graphic design), and of course, other small games.

How it will go
