Odile was born in France, trained as a lawyer and worked as a chief of staff for a French Member of Parliament. Odile left France in the late 90s. Since then she has lived in the United Kingdom and the United States – where she worked in public relation and marketing – before settling in Singapore 6 years ago. After moving with her family to Singapore in 2010, Odile got fully involved in the docent programmes of Friends of the Museums (Asian Civilization Museum and Singapore Art Museum), eventually becoming in 2013 the Head of Student Program at the Singapore Art Museum. She still runs the programme. In 2015, Odile decided to make a full commitment to this long standing passion for Art and her knowledge of Southeast Asian contemporary art by pursuing the Master of Asian Art Histories at LASALLE College of the Arts in Singapore.
