"I started working for Komori 13 years ago and transitioned from demonstrator and instructor to PESP (Print Engineering Service Provider) consultant. I travel all over France to provide technical support to customers, while offering them printing solutions adapted to their specific needs through K-Supply consumables and KomoriKare software. Providing training, taking care of maintenance contracts, and production optimization are part of my job as well.
What I like about working as the PESP consultant in France is that it allows me to combine two different sides of our industry, commercial and technical, and also use my own experience from other companies, such as a package printing company. The packaging sector has allowed me to gain real experience in the graphic arts industry because the processes are very complex due to the high added value in packaging.
I enjoy working with my colleagues, both in Komori France and with our European K-Supply team. It gives me the opportunity to have constructive discussions, which allow me to learn as a professional in the industry and have better exchanges with our customers and partners, too. I find it very rewarding to work with all sorts of people, companies and organizations. Everyone has different needs, and adapting to each person or situation makes the work interesting and varied to me.
I spend my free time as much as possible with my wife and children, Lisa and Jules. We play sports, walk in nature and take trips to discover other cultures and ways of life. I believe these are essential for the education of children. I like to be active myself and have played many sports since I was very young, such as football, tennis and squash. Nowadays I try to run as much as I can. When I get a bit of time off, I work on my handicap while playing golf."
