Eve Steben
Rep + Strategist & Creative Consultant
Eve Steben joined the Colagene team in 2009 as North American commercial and advertising accounts manager. Her diverse work and education background is a testament to her many talents. After studying fashion design and completing a bachelor's degree in fashion management, she earned a master's in marketing from HEC. Fascinated by the study of modern business problems, her theoretical research focused on product development, the semiotics of media production and innovation management, and led her to participate in a variety of projects. During her time working in marketing, she developed a multidisciplinary approach that combined management and innovation, and she had the opportunity to work with a diverse client portfolio, thus gaining valuable strategic experience. Having previously spent several years working in the field of fashion, she also has an excellent eye for trends and style. In her personal life, Eve has a number of passions, including art, design, music and travel, and similarly to her work life, she eagerly seeks out new experiences and challenges. Through her work in research and consulting, she learned to develop a taste for trying new things, which might help to explain her skydiving skills and overzealousness for DIY projects.

Vincent Sillard
Founder + Creative Director + Rep
One way to describe Vincent is "passionate." He feeds on images, architecture, fashion, graphic design, photography and, of course, illustration. Born in France, he studied for five years at the École supérieure d'arts appliqués Boulle in Paris before heading to Canada to finish his academic career at the Université du Québec à Montréal. After earning his degree in urban design and receiving further training in graphic design, Vincent partnered up with Marie-Christine Brisson in 2001 to found Colagene. In addition to being an agent for the illustration clinic in Paris, Vincent has also been the manager and artistic director of the graphic design clinic since its inception, managing a team of freelancers who carry out projects for Colagene in everything from Web design to print media.
