Hi! My name is Olivier, and I’m a French sound designer now living in Montreal, Canada. I first came here to study and fell in love with Quebec. I decided to stay and build my life here, and today I am proud to be a Canadian citizen.
I’m also a father to a wonderful two-year-old daughter who keeps me busy and inspired every day.
I started my studies in music and later focused on sound design. At first, I was interested in studio recording, but everything changed when I discovered Wwise and the fascinating world of interactive audio for video games.
Fast forward to today, I have several years of experience in the industry, working on both indie games and AA titles. Throughout my career, I’ve explored nearly every aspect of game audio—from studio recording and sound design to complex integration workflows and creating advanced audio systems. I’m always excited to keep learning and take on new challenges.
