Hey, I'm Romain.

My story

I'm a 4th-year mechanical engineering student at McGill University. I was born in Paris, France, and moved to New York City when I was 2 — I grew up there, attending Stuyvesant High School (IYKYK).

All my life I've been an avid traveler (16 countries, 23 states, 4 provinces), which has led to a lot of time spent in airports and a budding passion for aviation from a very young age — I'm talking like 5 years old.

At heart I'm a builder, as reflected by my hobbies: making videos, flying FPV drones, and painting. When I'm not building, I spend my free time playing soccer, rock climbing, biking, traveling, and outdoorsmaxxing.
