About me
My approach involves deep empathy, for end-users and every role in the creation process.
I handle the full design process, from user research and concept development to high-fidelity prototyping, user testing, and articulated development deliverables.
I know when to dive deep and refine the craft, and when to move fast and optimize for efficiency.
I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including strategists, developers, UX and industrial designers, product managers, marketing specialists, and data analysts, to ensure alignment and proper execution.
I keep myself up to date with the latest innovations (AI, high-fidelity prototyping tools and beyond) and integrate them into my workflow and deliverables.
I believe in sharing insights and lessons learned to improve both my team work and the broader field of design.
Corentin is a talented interaction designer with a strategic mindset. He not only helps visualize best in class user experiences, he can help conceptualize them in a way that wins the hearts of customers and moves the metrics that matter most for businesses.

In addition to his contributions as a practicing designer, Corentin has also made his mark as a Most Valuable Coach. He models his standard of quality by being transparent with his work, casually sharing quick tips, giving friendly nudges to teammates for better practices, and creating the most delightful workshops for hands-on skills development.
Beyond being the dazzling talent he is known for, Corentin is absolutely one of the most generous, fun and funny people anyone would be lucky to know - whether you’re a brand new acquaintance, anxious introvert, or adventurous old friend. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with him again.

Corentin is easily one of the most talented and thoughtful designers that I've had the pleasure of working alongside in my time at frog. He epitomizes the image of a "designer" as much as anyone I know.
He is constantly exploring new techniques and technologies, looking for ways to incorporate his learnings into his work. His feedback is sound and detail-oriented. He presents clearly and with poise.
What sets him apart, in my book, is his dedication to the craft of interaction design and his ability to articulate design decisions and contribute across every aspect of the work. Whether it's interaction design, visuals, or strategic thinking, Corentin approaches his work with a focus on creating the best possible solution for the target users. It's not just about looks; it's about building the right thing for the right person, backed by best practices, evidence, and thoughtful reasoning.He is also a generous contributor to the broader design team.
He has shared his work often with fellow designers and the frog SF studio, at large. I've been fortunate to learn a lot in those sessions. He has been particularly influential in helping the rest of our design team up-skill on generative AI tools by staying up to date on new features and sharing his experiments.
Overall, he's a true asset to our design team, someone who strives to do his best work and helps everyone around him reach their best, too.

I worked closely with Corentin on several projects with tight deadlines. He solved complex interaction problems quickly and was fearless in learning new software in service of the work he was doing. During a fast-paced project, he learned how to combine animated characters with live video and delighted our clients with his work. In another complex situation, he figured out how to set up multiple cameras in several rooms to capture the behavior of research participants.
Corentin always shone as a key contributor on my team and stood out for his kindness, humility and insatiable appetite to learn. I’d be delighted to work with him again!

Corentin is a lead interaction designer who thinks and builds systematically across the whole design process, from strategy, to robust prototypes, to working closely to translate the designs for development. I've had the pleasure of working with him on a few projects, and have seen the work and team become better with his impact.
For his craft, he's able to bring his design leadership and skills to any domain and project. On projects where he's been in it from the start, I've seen how he builds robust products based on his ability to assess the UX landscape and user research. On projects where he's come in later, I've seen how he elevates the work through his systematic thinking, push for a strong interaction model or information architecture, and mentors other designers on best practices. He's often trusted to be on leaner teams because he works swiftly and across complex domains. I really admire his constant push to elevate the work, the team, and up-level his own skillsets by constantly staying up to date with the latest tools and workflows.
Beyond his high quality of work, he's collaborative, loves to mentor, and brings his unique sense of humor to teams. He's a pleasure to work with, and I recommend Corentin for any team looking for a talented, systematic, and collaborative lead or senior designer.
