I am a bibliophile;a gourmet;amazed by nature and animals
Your career in brief
Studies in La Rochelle; Consulting for 6 years in Toulouse and Bordeaux; 1 year studying in Bidart; and here I am at DBE in Geneva!
You receive an elephant, you can keep it or sell it. What do you do and why?
It seems that for elephants, humans are like cats for us. Their first instinct is to protect and cuddle us. What could be more touching than a cat that lets itself be tamed and asks for affection? If elephants feel the same way about us and I have one, then I’d keep him and give him this joy. What’s more, I’d be protected and would be able to go on extraordinary walks.
When you were little, what was your dream job?
I was very greedy as a child and I remember wanting to be a baker/pastry cook at one time, so that I could eat as many pastries and viennoiseries as I wanted without restriction! By the way, where I come from we say CHOCOLATINE.
How many windows do you think there are in New York?
The image I got from that question was enough to give me a headache…
Why work at DBE?
DBE has a human approach, which I really appreciate. What’s more, it’s a company with great potential, very interesting projects and a great team! The real question would be “Why NOT work for DBE?
Tell us an open secret:
I’m a compulsive book buyer. So I always end up with a huge reading pile that keeps growing. I read a lot, but it doesn’t decrease as quickly as it increases. And I apply the LIFO technique, of course, to the reading order, otherwise it’s no fun.
Three things you'd take with you to a desert island?
A book (How to Survive on a Desert Island for Dummies), A machete,A flint. But my chances of survival are so slim that I might as well take 3 distress rockets.
One word (and one word only)
