A biologist gone rogue. Developing new skills by the day.

After completing a formal education journey with a master’s degree in France focused on plant biology and sustainable agriculture, I’m now teaching myself to code. My academic path has taken me to three different universities around the world, and today, I work as a research engineer for a start-up. I currently live in France but am planning my return to sunny Florida, where I can write legendary code under a palm tree.

Creativity has always been a core part of who I am, and in my current role I’ve had the privilege of leading projects with significant responsibility. I thrive in dynamic environments and adapt quickly to any challenge, leading teams with passion and a focus on collaboration — no one ever feels pressured under my guidance. I believe understanding people is as crucial as understanding code.

My determination is as strong as an ox’s. Teaching yourself to code is no small feat, and I’m well on my way to mastering it.
