Sebastien Rouviere
Creative Director

About

Bonjour! I’m Sébastien,

a French Creative Director & polyglot writer at DAVID New York.

I speak English with a French accent, Spanish with a Peruvian accent, and a bit of Italian with a Spanish accent. But I can write without an accent. Although I’ve worked in Peru, France, Italy, and Spain, I promise my career choices were never influenced by gastronomy.

For questions such as “is it just the picture, or does he always look that worried?” feel free to contact me in any of the aforementioned languages.
