About

A career shaped by both scholarship and shipping.

Public profiles describe me as a data science leader and lecturer with a PhD in Computer Science from Universite de Lorraine, experience leading teams in industry, and a sustained research record across AI, security, and collaborative systems.

I am especially interested in designing machine learning systems that do more than score well on a benchmark: they need to be explainable, trustworthy, and useful in operational settings.
