About Me

I'm born in Nantes, went to the university in Rennes and worked in Valence and Paris. I work in computer graphics, I make the characters move in 3D movies (I am a 'character animator'). The most famous movies I've worked on would be Despicable Me 3, The Secret Life Of Pets and The Grinch if that rings any bell :) I love my job! (most of the time)

I've got three big passions outside of my work: mountain sports (skiing, rock and ice climbing mostly), music (I play the drums and the guitar, everything around jazz soul and funk mostly) and photography. They occupy most of my free time! I also love good food, good wine, good beer, good friends and a good conversation. I like talking about science, politics, religion... If it's not too heavy or boring for the people I'm speaking to of course!

Music, Movies, and Books

I mostly listen to jazz, funk, soul, neo-soul, hip hop, 70's rock, and I'm not against a pop song or some electro in a club every once in a while.

I like movies and series with a good plot that is 'more intelligent than I am' as it were. Meaning that I like to be surprised by the story. I also love British and american comedy, animated movies obviously, and some of the series of the last decade. I'm quite bad at listing names though because the ones that randomly come to mind hardly ever seem to be my all time favourites :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've climbed the Mont Blanc a few times.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to share tips about my job (between colleagues mostly as I don't often meet people who do that too), I love talking about music theory (which is not necessarily boring or too mathematical surprisingly), I love to teach rock climbing to beginners and share tips with experienced climbers. I like to talk about photography without going too deep in technical stuff... Which can happen very quickly with photography geeks :P
And obviously I like to learn new stuff about all these things as well.
I like things which you are never done learning :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good conversation, a pint of beer, a bottle of wine, good dinner?
