With over a decade of experience in emerging technologies, I've successfully launched new products, grown international teams, and driven the adoption of cutting-edge technologies across a range of industries in France, the USA, and the UK.

Between 2019 and 2022, I co-founded WildMeta, a London-based AI startup building smarter and more human-like game AIs. Now, I'm eager to take on a new challenge.

With my unique blend of technology experience and business acumen, I excel at leading cross-functional teams and driving growth strategies. My work has been nominated for several awards, and I am actively engaged in the startup ecosystem as a startup mentor, VC scout, grant assessor, and public speaker.
