In 2008, she received a Master of New Media at École Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle (ENSCI) with honors.

Tempo (mapping the sky in real time) was exposed at the “Nuit Blanche 2008” on the occasion of “Nemo” festival, at “SIANA” festival in Évry and Brazil. Void Extension (behaving virtual camera) is presented at “Future en Seine” at Pavillon de l’Arsenal and at “Piksel” festival in Norway.
