Hey! I’m Ilu, a professional daydreamer and Art Director at Dentsu Creative France. I started my creative journey as a designer, but quickly fell in love with advertising. Proud mom of two cats, video game geek, and undeniably the best shower singer in my house. When I grow up, I wanna be like when I was a kid, looking for the amazingness of the little things.
