I hold a PhD degree in Computer Science from EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland. During my PhD I worked on topics in Artificial Intelligence, numerical optimization, discrete mathematics, micro-economics and cryptography.

After my PhD, I have worked on launching a startup at EPFL, in the area of business software platforms.

I worked in industry in several large and small companies, in a variety of roles (software development, research, project management), and on a variety of topics (finance, enterprise software,  e-learning)

Since 2010 I moved to the financial sector. For the time being, my main focus is on trading and backtesting infrastructure optimization, large scale, high-performance data processing and analytics and on topics in algorithmic trading and quantitative finance.
