Early career

Motin studied computer sciences. She later worked in human resource consulting. [2]

Political career

In parliament, Motin serves as member of the Finance Committee. [3] From 2017 until 2018, she was also one of the National Assembly's six vice-presidents, under the leadership of president François de Rugy; in this capacity, she was in charge of the application of the deputies' statute.

As part of her parliamentary activity, Motin has served as rapporteur on tax withholding (2018), [4] pensions (2020) [5] and on the supervision of government departments’ cooperation with external consulting firms (2022). [6]

In September 2018, after de Rugy's appointment to the government, Motin ran for the presidency of the National Assembly. [7] In an internal vote within the LREM parliamentary group, she came in third; the position eventually went to the group's then-chairman Richard Ferrand. [8]

In addition to LREM, Motin joined the Horizons party in 2021. [9] [10]

Controversy

In November 2021, news media reported that Motin had received anonymous death threats. [11]
