I love the idea that everyone can be world-famous for 15 minutes as Andy Warhol said.

DS: What are the most memorable years of your life and what happened to make them so memorable?
2006 was awesome! I’ve been travelling in Australia, New Caledonia, Hong Kong, Bolivia, Argentina, Paraguay and Morocco.
I have seen amazing landscapes and met wonderful people!

DS: Where were you born and where do you live now?
I was born in Cambodia and came in France as a political refugee when I was one year old. Now I live in Paris, the most beautiful city in the world.

DS: How would you best describe yourself?
I love internet, arts and fashion. I like to travel physically and mentally, it’s a good way to discover new worlds. I’m very curious.

APC top, Lee jeans, Sergio Rossi high heels and a Jerôme Dreyfuss’s bag.

DS: Who do people tell you you look like?

DS: What is the compliment you most frequently get?
I’ve got a lovely smile. I smile because I want the world to smile at me

DS: How did you end-up being a web project manager?
I’ve got a versatile background. I studied sociology and literature because I wanted to be an anthropologist and a writer. Then I jumped into communication, marketing and computer sciences. I can feed my brain with internet.

DS: Can you tell us more about your job?
I’m working as a freelance for big advertising companies, mostly for international accounts. I enjoy my work as I can constantly move from various projects and work with new creative teams. I love digital motion and interactivity. I’m a « mad woman » (cf mad men) but I didn’t drink nor smoke when I worked at BBDO.
