Postdoc at University of Notre Dame, supervised by Erin Chambers. My Ph.D. thesis was defended on September 2025. From September 2022 to September 2025, I was a PhD student at Université Gustave Eiffel, supervised by Éric Colin de Verdière and Vincent Despré. Before that, I studied at École Normale Supérieure de Lyon.
