• PhD at Warwick under Prof. Oleg Pikhurko on 'Applications of Entropy to Extremal Problems' (2014-2018) but no doctoral role after 2018 and current title 'Ingenieur IT', which reads as leaving academia for industry shortly after the PhD rather than completing an academic path.2018
• Member of France's 6-person team at IMO 2010; scored P1=7, P2=7, P5=2, total 16, rank 199, bronze medal. Team led by Claude Deschamps with Pierre Bornsztein.Jul 2010
• Studied mathematics at Cambridge then informatics at Universite Grenoble Alpes and started doctoral research at Warwick, a research track that diverted into industry data engineering rather than an academic career.Jan 2024
• Listed as a Concours General 2010 mathematics laureate, 3eme accessit, at Lycee international Europole in Grenoble; the same school and year cohort corroborates this is the IMO 2010 France contestant.Jun 2010
• Career across ORNESS, Oscaro.com and Societe Generale in mathematics/algorithms/statistics and database engineering shows a consistent applied-maths-to-data trajectory.Jan 2024
• Current employer Selfee is a Credit Agricole subsidiary electricity supplier/aggregator trading renewable energy, so his data engineering work sits in energy-market operations rather than the usual tech sector.Dec 2025
