ACADEMIC BACKGROUND
After obtaining my High School Diploma with the Très Bien mention (A+), I took intensive preparatory classes on Mathematics, Physics and Mechanics to attend the top engineering school, Télécom SudParis, former Institut National des Télécommunications (INT). It is an active member of the Institut Polytechnique de Paris and the Institut Mines Télécom Network.
I graduated from a Master of Science, with an Engineering Degree, where I have studied Telecommunication, Computer Science, Networks and Electronics, with a specialization in Cybersecurity.
In September 2022, I obtain the title of Information Systems Security Expert (Expert de la Sécurité des Systèmes d’Informations, ESSI) from the French national security agency ANSSI.
Since June 2023, I am a Ph.D. candidate in cybersecurity, focused on layers 2 of public blockchains. I have the chance to work on my research with Prof. Rida Khatoun from Télécom Paris, Institut Polytechnique of Paris on one side, and with Yannick Seurin and Nicolas Iooss from Ledger Donjon, from the other side.
