More?
I am originally from a small city in France, Strasbourg, on the border with Germany.
I’ve been living in New York for almost 6 years, working for Air France and on a few other projects. Before, I also worked for Lafarge in Paris, and a bit for Altran.
When I have time, I try to travel as much as possible, take pictures, learn to develop a little. You should check this travel journal of my trip in Rajasthan, India and this one of my trip to Guatemala.
