Born in Venezuela, Jean-Louis moved with his family to France when he was 16 years old. He attended the University Paris Nanterre, earning his undergraduate and master’s degrees in Business Psychology. He relocated to the U.S. about ten years ago, working for start-ups in Silicon Valley.

In his spare time, he enjoys cooking, baking, and gardening.
