R&D AI engineer & Entrepreneur

About me

Since embarking on my artificial intelligence journey in 2017, I've navigated the dynamic startup world, co-founding my own and applying theoretical expertise and practical skills across various sectors. This dual perspective is reflected in my education, initially theoretical in fundamental mathematics, complemented by technical training at 42 and several certifications.

Typically immersed in the startup environment, I've often participated in strategic decisions and learned to adapt to resource constraints. This experience has not only shaped my unique approach to artificial intelligence, but also allowed me to develop qualities appreciated by my collaborators. I am recognized for my conscientious work, creativity, active listening, and team-working skills.

As an advocate for responsible AI, I align my work with ethical principles and am committed to impactful projects, such as promoting women in the literary world and developing soft skills in children.

Aware of the challenges businesses face and the need to embrace AI to stay competitive, I offer AI consulting and training services. My goal is to share my passion for AI and help businesses navigate this complex landscape.

Discover right now how I can help your teams and your business transform through AI.
