Born in 1966 in Paris, Frédéric Loisel grew up in a non-religious but respectful French family. His musical journey began at the age of five with the cello, influenced by his professional musician parents. In 1992, Frédéric was appointed to train American musicians near Tours, an opportunity that piqued his curiosity about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Despite his initial disinterest in the church, Frederic promised his friends he would meet with the missionaries upon his return to Paris. After eight months of learning and personal transformation, including quitting smoking and drinking, he was baptized in August 1993.
His dedication to the church saw him serve in various capacities, including as a bishop and counselor in multiple stake presidencies. In 2016, Frédéric was called to serve as a stake president. Professionally, Frédéric has been the manager of a music school since 2006, continues to play the cello, and conducts orchestras. Additionally, he is a founding partner of a musical streaming startup, reflecting his ongoing passion for music and innovation.
