I design unique fashion items and contemporary jewelry for a few long-standing customers.
As a child and teenager, I lived in Gabon for 16 years. During the pandemic, I travelled by car for almost 1 year and lived in Portugal for 6 months.
I created and managed a B&B in Belgian Ardennes for 2 years.
I like architecture, sculpture, the scent of frangipani blossoms, terracotta walls and “bleu Klein”, red lipstick, San Francisco vibes, the night sky in Moorea (French Polynesia), malachite and lapis lazuli, natural fabrics, walking in nature, eucalyptus trees and harvesting in my garden.
Boeuf bourguignon, gravlax salmon, chocolate cake and berries jam are my best recipes.
