Take one look through Benoit’s passport and you get a sense of where his diverse and unique design aesthetic originates from. From NYC, to Paris, to London, and a scattering of countries in any given month, Benoit‘s multi-cultural influences are omnipresent throughout every project.
Benoit is a jack-of-all-trades and a master of more than a few. If we had to come up with a title that encompasses everything Benoit does in a given day, we would have a serious side-to-side scrolling issue; and part of his job is to make sure that kind of thing doesn’t happen. He is a perfectionist in his work and that makes our clients (and their IT department) very happy. He also requires less sleep than the average human, which also makes our clients happy.
Born and raised in Paris, Benoit honed his artistic skills as a design and illustration major at the Arc en Ciel, graduating in 2001. Afterwards, he learned how to transform that artistic foundation to the digital environment at Paris’ Ecole des Metiers de la Communication, where he earned his BA in Multimedia Design. A year of marketing at Manhattan College topped off his formal education process, but always the self-motivator, Benoit soon taught himself PHP, Flash ActionScripting, XML, and CSS to name just a few impressive-sounding acronyms. As if his skill set wasn't robust enough, he is currently teaching himself
J-Query “for the fun of it”.
He enjoys Hip-Hop, long walks on the beach, and absolutely despises IE6.
