After completing a Bachelor in Mathematics, Physics & Mechanics in my hometown of Lyon in France, I went to Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory for my Masters Thesis and subsequently obtained a Masters in High Energy Physics from Sorbonne University in Paris. I earned a PhD in Astronomy and Astrophysics from the University of Barcelona in Spain, under the supervision of Prof. Jordi Miralda-Escudé. I was a postodoctoral fellow at University College London and the University of Rochester before being recruited by Berkeley Lab as a project scientist for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument.

Here is a somewhat up-to-date version of my CV. My publication record can be accessed here.

In my spare time, I combine my expertise as an artist and a scientist to engage in science communication and education around my work studying the history of the universe. If you would like to know more about my artistic projects and my cross-disciplinary research, do get in touch with me !
