When did you join Cirque du Soleil?

I began in 2004.


It was very good… cool and relaxed.

How did your integration go in the show?

My integration took nearly 3 years, but everything is very good now.


I love having the possibility to grow with such a great company.


It has been very good so far.

How is in Las Vegas?
