I build AI products by programming and talking a lot.

2023 - Joined phospho (YC W24), an AI startup, as a Founding Engineer (first employee). I accelerate the adoption of the latest AI technologies in Paris and San Francisco. Most notably, we built the open source platform phosphobot to let you train special AI models (VLA) that control robots.
2022-2023 - Joined the consulting firm QuantumBlack, AI by McKinsey as a Data Scientist. I traveled accross Europe to help large companies progress on GenAI, future mobility, and business analytics.
2021-2022 - Joined Ynstant, a carpooling startup, as a co-founder. I’ll never forget when I actually got into a car thanks to the app I built from scratch. Student loans stopped me in this adventure.
2015-2022 - Survived French “prépa classes” and graduated from HEC Paris and Télécom Paris, with a double degree in business and engineering. I did internships at the Criteo AI Lab (online ads R&D), Foundamental (Berlin construction VC fund), and Skillup (Paris startup).

I made this blog to share my stories and the cool stuff I learned in data science, programming, and mathematics.
