Aw crap... uh...

Nerdy, clumsy, outgoing, film geek, lover of music, ambitious, energetic, daydreamer, nightbird... is that enough?

I'm not one to take things too seriously. My motto is that everything can be taken as an inappropriately offensive joke. Always makes the medicine go down easier. So people with no sense of humor, need not apply.

French is my native language, but I can manage to have a more or less coherent conversation in English, though this has nothing to do with how I master the language, but mostly because I have a pretty erratic train of thought.

I have a bachelor degree in Communications (Cinema) and, at the moment, I'm working in TV postproduction (editing). I'm also working on personal projects (mostly short films and writing at the moment) on the side.

Befriending people, defusing tense situations, most trivia games, getting lost in my thoughts while speaking to someone, getting lost period while going somewhere, getting myself inadvertently into trouble.

My curly hair, my very vocal laughter and when I've dropped a very hot cup of chai latté on their lap. Did I say I was clumsy yet?

Humor, friendship, movies, music, inspiration and booze

Stuff. I tend to observe and over-analyze everything, just out of sheer curiosity (and a bit of neurosis, but far from "Woody Allen" levels...)

Batman, but don't tell anyone...

if you just feel like it, but are allergic to small talk.
