Best next moves
Confirm whether Pauline BOURIC has a portfolio site
A design professional often links to a case-study portfolio, and that is the fastest way to confirm identity across platforms.
Check the Instagram handle pauline.bouric for corroborating bio details
It is one of the closest name variants found in search, but it still needs a bio, photo, or link to be treated as owned.
Review the Instagram handle pauline_bourie for photo and location matches
This handle is a near-name variant and may be the same person, but the current evidence is too thin to confirm it.
Use the LinkedIn profile as the anchor identity for future vetting
The LinkedIn account has the strongest evidence chain, so it should be the reference point for any later cross-checks.
