I am an assistant professor at the Centre Automatique et Systèmes within Mines Paris-PSL.
I obtained my PhD in Applied Mathematics from CERMICS at École des Ponts et Chaussées in October 2018. Following my PhD, I spent two years as an optimization engineer with Artelys, in the team developing the solver Artelys Knitro. After that experience, I joined as a postdoctoral fellow Argonne National Laboratory's Mathematics and Computer Science (MCS) division from 2020 to 2022, under the supervision of Mihai Anitescu.
My primary areas of research lie in mathematical optimization. I focus on optimizing large-scale systems using the interior-point method, with a strong emphasis on nonlinear and stochastic programming.
