Curiosity has always fueled my life… sparked by music, movies, diverse cultures, and the people I meet along the way. Whether collaborating on a team or performing solo, I thrive in the moment, feeding off the excitement and energy around me.

One night in Paris captured that spirit perfectly: after the PSG vs. Olympique de Marseille match, I found myself riding through the city, chasing a late-night bite. The energy, culture, and movement of that night still inspire me today.

That’s what curiosity is for me… a reminder to stay open, seek out new experiences, and bring that sense of discovery into everything I do.
