Leslie Haggege
@lesliehaggege
Experienced French journalist specializing in arts and cultural reporting.
What I'm looking for
With over a decade of experience as a French journalist and cultural reporter, I have honed my skills in covering arts, music, and film through in-depth interviews and multimedia storytelling. My journey has taken me from working with CANAL+ in Paris to freelancing, where I produce editorial content that resonates with global audiences. I have had the privilege of interviewing industry leaders, including Sting and Christopher Nolan, and reporting on major cultural events like Coachella and the Cannes Film Festival.
My work is characterized by a deep understanding of both American and European cultural landscapes, allowing me to blend investigative journalism with creative storytelling. I independently launched 'Frenchie Flair,' an interview series that spotlights French artists, showcasing my commitment to promoting cultural narratives. My editorial strategies and social media initiatives have consistently engaged audiences and shaped compelling narratives across various platforms.
