Even as a kid, I knew I wanted to become a mountain guide. Growing up in Aix-en-Provence, in southern France, the Alps have been my playground since a very young age. Amazing climbing spots like the Calanques and Gorges du Verdon were just a stone throw's away from my hometown.
Eventually, I also became an architect, another long-time passion. As an architect, I lived in New York, Barcelona and Rotterdam and learned to speak fluent English and Spanish. I also met great people and had an amazing time while doing it!
I'm now back home in France and spend most of my time guiding in the Alps. I'll be happy to take you rock climbing, skiing or mountaineering to some of my favorite spots.

Me and my partner had the goal to learn how to lead climb outside by ourselves. Within 2 days Max learned us the basics of how to safely lead climb outdoors. He knew where to take us in the area, that would and cover both our styles of climbing and would be bearable with the summer heat in France. I would recommend anyone who is looking to learn lead climbing outside or wants someone who knows the area, to book a trip with Max !

We had a fantastic climbing day with Max. He was fun to hang out with. He set up lots of climbs that were fun for all the abilities of our group. He made us feel safe and confident. Max’s English is perfect which meant a lot to some of us.
