	Overview Born in Bordeaux, France, Baptiste was brought into this world by the Deveaux family. A family of vintners, he spend quite a bit of his youth outside of school learning the family trade among the vineyards. He was classically trained at the University of Bordeaux, earning a degree in business, with a minor in dance. Once fully settled in with the family business, Baptiste began delving into collecting rare books and art. At one of the soirées hosted by his family vineyards, he met a gentleman from Marseille, Louis Badeaux. The two clicked, sharing similar interests. Louis eventually invited Baptiste along on his expeditions to auction houses and ecclectic traders. Their travels took them all over Europe, and then to the United States. They visited each of the Bonham Auction Houses - traveling coast to coast. Their last stop was in Los Angeles, where he and Louis parted ways for some time. Baptiste would return to Bordeaux, in order to catalogue his collection and tend to his family affairs. Soon enough, however, Baptiste had a want to return to the Sunshine state and setup a private estate there to conduct business, as well as add more to his collection. He decided upon Los Angeles, and has since setup residence here.
