About Me

I was born in Vernon, a town in Normandie, France. I spent my childhood there, in a very old house built in the 1300ies for the local monks ! :) I have beautiful memories of Normandie and it's no wonder why it was so praised by painters like Monet. I did my post-baccalaureat (= post high-school) studies in Versailles and my engineering studies in Paris, where i also worked for a few years until i moved to California in October 2003.I like food, especially all kind of asian food, very spicy is not a problem. I like the ocean and mountains. I like watching the snow fall and turn everything into white and muffle the sound, it's magical to me. I miss snow and real seasons. I like new technologies and computers since i'm a little kid. I love the relationship between visuals/motion and music. Connecting the two is a rare and an under-estimated art. I truely adore cats, probably because i have been surrounded by them since i was born :) Even if they scratch me, that's ok haha, it's probably because i deserved it ;) Those are very independant animals as you know! Oh, i love to dance too, it's fun !
