Hi there, I’m Julie, a hands-on Creative Lead & Visual Experience Design Director at Art Processors in NYC.

Working with Exhibits, Content, UX & Tech teams, I lead the creative direction & design of immersive digital experiences in physical spaces for Museums & Brands, working with a variety of formats and technologies.

My position covers all phases of a project from early concept to design development and final installation, interfacing with clients and contractors on a regular basis and ensuring both the creative and business goals are met at each step of the way. As a hands-on digital designer, I also love experimenting and take an active role in prototyping and user testings.

Prior to my current position, I worked in Paris for renowned R&D departments in the automotive and luxury industries and led creative projects on the future of in-car interface design for PSA Group premium and concept cars. I also art directed print and digital projects for Louis Vuitton’s Innovation & Environment Lab, while working on the side as an illustrator for fashion trends bureau, agencies, magazines and festivals.

I was born and raised in France. Left in my early twenties to study 3D and motion design in Seattle, WA. Lived in Tokyo, Japan for a year freelancing as an illustrator for fashion bureaux, magazines and festivals, before heading back to Paris and starting a career in interaction design.  I have called NYC my home base since 2015.

2019: Months before the World went into a pandemic shutdown, I was part of a short documentary highlighting 3 women who moved to NYC, discussing their hopes and challenges to start a new life and career here. I thought the video will never see the light but here it is. Fast forward to 2023: Still here and no looking back. I hope my journey can inspire others to pursue their dreams and let go.
