My Journey

Currently in my 3rd year in the Applied Mathematics department at École Polytechnique, I am passionate about quantitative finance, stochastic modeling, time series analysis and deep learning.

My journey has allowed me to explore various fields: from statistical learning to risk management, including operations research. I had the opportunity to work as a Quant Risk Analyst at Abeille Assurances, where I developed pricing and credit risk models.

I am always looking for new challenges and opportunities to deepen my skills in this exciting field.
