(some of) My passions are: *Filming and Editing I'm filming and editing short films. With 2 friends, we are making promotional movies to highlight innovative projects led by NGOs and social entrepreneurs, in France and in developping countries. we run our own NGO, Videaux (www.videaux.org), that makes videos for social projects. *Social innovation I'm very interested in innovation, especially when it's hitting the field of social development. I'm keeping up-to-date about high-tech innovations that help tackle poverty issues and consider becoming an engineer in next life. (it's too late now, i'm in a business school!) *China I have always had a passion for China. I did an exchange program in a Shanghai university in 2010 and travelled twice across the country. I am learning Chinese since then and am thinking of further studying/living in China in the future. *Music I'm a huge fan of music, with extensive tastes (ranging from good Parisian electro to Cape-Verdean folk music..). If we actually meet up, i expect you to share your playlist with me! *Travelling!!!!!
