About me

Hello world !

I hold a PhD in Social Sciences & Humanities with a Master’s degree in Computational Social Sciences, and have extensive work experience in both academia and the private sector.

As an independant researcher and entrepreneur, my work revolves around the following areas of expertise:

  • narrative-based practices
  • partnerships & relational networks
  • open science & society
  • PhD career development.

Don’t hesitate to reach out if you want to collaborate on:

  • launching or coordinating participatory research projects
  • writing, editing and reviewing academic content
  • hosting career development webinars or workshops for PhDs and entrepreneurs
  • acquiring skills to build, manage and mediate within communities to foster diversity and inclusion
  • advocating for health rights for childhood cancer survivors.

I live and work in France, which is why a lot my blog posts are in French.

Like what you see?

Let’s talk, I’m be happy to explore collaboration opportunities!

Au plaisir ! 🙂
