"I am keen to pass on what I have been"
Can you describe your academic and professional background?
I joined the Reims campus of Sciences Po in 2015 with the desire to become a journalist. As a French-Irish citizen, I was also attracted by studying in a bilingual environment.
I quickly turned to legal subjects. I did my third year at the Faculty of Law of Leiden in the Netherlands to study fundamental rights and European Union law.
Wishing to become a lawyer, I chose to follow the Master in Economic Law at the Sciences Po Law School.
I then did a gap year between my first year of Master’s and my second year of Master’s. I did an internship at J.P. Karsenty & Associés in criminal law and white-collar crime, and an internship at the Criminal Chamber Litigation Office of the Cour de Cassation, the French judiciary supreme court.
This gap year convinced me to become a lawyer in criminal law and press law and allowed me to better understand the issues that a lawyer faces on a daily basis.
In 2020, I joined the Programme "Contentieux Économique et Arbitrage" at the Law School directed by Professor Dany Cohen, in order to perfect my knowledge of judicial, administrative and arbitral litigation and to improve my legal reasoning and my writing skills.
In order to specialize in press law, I joined the Master’s 2 Media Law of the Panthéon-Assas University in 2021. I did this Master’s while working at the law firm of Delphine Meillet.
I passed the bar exam (“CRFPA”) in 2021 and I will join the bar school (“
