RETIREMENT
He retired from competitive swimming in about 2020. "After very good years as a high-level athlete that led me to the London Olympics and then to Rio, the unprecedented global [COVID-19] pandemic forced me to put an end to my career as a professional athlete." (allyteams.com, 01 Jan 2021)
FROM MARTINIQUE TO FRANCE
He moved from the French overseas region of Martinique to continental France at age 16 to compete at the Dauphins du TOEC club. Philippe Miomandre, a coach at the club, had seen him swim and contacted his parents. "I did not want to leave, they pushed me, and I gave in eventually." (ladepeche.fr, 21 Mar 2016)
FURTHER EDUCATION
He has studied for a master's degree in management and international development strategies at the Toulouse Business School in France. (allyteams.com, 01 Jan 2021) |
