Billy Pierre

In 2011, Billy won an international poetry competition organized by the French Poetry Association, Poésie en Liberté.

This moment was a turning point for him and encouraged him to continue with his writing. In 2017, Poésie en Liberté, headquartered in Paris, designated Billy as their correspondent for Haiti and some cities in the United States. In 2020, Billy was selected to be a member of the reading committee for the 22nd edition of Poésie en Liberté’s poetry competition.

In 2017, he cofounded Le Coquelicot Revue, a poetry magazine, with Aglaée Colin, a published poetess, and laureate of Poésie en Liberté.

He graduated with a degree in International Politics and is now pursuing a Masters in Global Management. He currently works as a linguist.
