Two people building Magic Mate

I trained in aeronautics, then started working at Airbus as an aircraft mechanic. Alongside that, I'd always wanted to get into making content, and streaming on Twitch above all. In 2018 I finally had enough money to buy my first gear, and I started my first streams.

Hervé and I met on Twitch, back when I was starting out. We got on, he became a moderator on my channel, and we quickly started doing things together. He built Fortnite maps, and I brought my community onto them to test his concepts live. Every time, a new map and a new viewer-game concept, all handmade: we had a blast, and so did the chat.

In 2020 I left aeronautics to stream full time. I joined Gaming Campus to learn more about making content, grow my network, meet people and take part in events.

That's when I hosted two editions of A-live Event, a charity event that brings Twitch streamers together for the Analgesia foundation, which works with people living with chronic pain.

I mostly streamed FPS games, with a long stretch on Valorant. Hervé and I also ran several Weecup tournaments on Valorant with French esports teams, and I cast the events myself.

Those years taught me a lot about making content, and they led me to a simple conclusion: it was hard to turn into a job steady enough to live on. So in 2023 I retrained as a full-stack developer.

Today I work full time as a full-stack developer. On my time off, I build Magic Mate with Hervé: the app itself, and our socials too.

In 2018 I met Jimmy on Twitch and became a moderator on his channel. We quickly started doing things together, like viewer games on the Fortnite maps I was building.

In 2020 I started studying software development and built my first scripts and bots for Jimmy's channel and Discord.

In 2024 development became my job: I build tools for the media.

In 2026 Jimmy and I launched Magic Mate: his experience as a streamer, my work as a developer, and the same wish to give streamers the tools they were missing. We've come full circle: we met on Twitch, and Twitch is what we build for today.
