Welcome
Welcome to my homepage!
I am an associate researcher (chargé de recherche) at Inria Grenoble - Rhône-Alpes in the Statify team and member of Laboratoire Jean Kuntzmann in Université Grenoble Alpes. Prior to that, I was a postdoc at Bocconi University (Milan) and Collegio Carlo Alberto (Turin), and a statistician at Insee (French National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies, Paris). I received my PhD in Applied Mathematics (Statistics) at Université Paris-Dauphine (with Judith Rousseau and Ghislaine Gayraud). I graduated from Ecole Polytechnique and ENSAE. I defended the French HDR in 2019. I am writing on the collaborative blog Statisfaction (formerly hosted here). More in my CV.
I strive to fly less.
