I currently work as Head of Science for Moments Lab, where I lead Research initiatives on video understanding. More info can be found on the Moments Lab Research website.

Previously, I completed a PhD in artificial intelligence at the Institut Polytechnique de Paris, advised by Jérôme Boudy and Gérard Chollet.

My current research interests include video understanding, multimodal agents, and AI fairness.

Feel free to reach out to me to discuss any of these topics or to collaborate on research projects.
