About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Carpe diem

ABOUT ME

Myself in a few words, wow.
I'm a 30 year-old, easy-going enthusiast.
Useful thing on CS: I speak French and English fluently, and a little bit of Spanish.
Let's say, on the qualities side: dynamic, open-minded and passionate about things I like. On the defaults side: lazy (yes, that's compatible with "dynamic") and I have a terrible memory and I don't like heated arguments.
In everyday life, I am professor and researcher in applied maths at the French superior institute for aeronautics and space (ISAE). Paragliding also takes a lot of my time (and gives back a lot of satisfaction which I'm usually happy to share!).

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe diem.

Interests

I'm a paragliding pilot and enthusiast. Cross-country, freestyle, waggas, or just flying on-site, solo or tandem: all are fine with me.
More generally, I like being in the mountains, for sports, friends, or just for chilling out.
Although I listen to all kinds of music, I have a specific preference for small bands performing live. If they play swing or gipsy jazz then you might even see me dancing (badly).
Other than that, I really like my job, both for my students and my research activities.
Last but not least, my friends play an important role in my life. Board games, sports, chilling out at a good pub, watching rugby, taking a walk in Toulouse with friends: that's what I enjoy!
