I am a PhD student in Computer Vision, affiliated with the VISTA team (previously GeoViC) at LIX, Ecole Polytechnique, under the supervision of Vicky Kalogeiton and Marc Christie. Previously, I was a research engineer in the VirtUs team at INRIA mentored by Marc Christie. I also completed an end-of-study internship in the VISTA team at LIX, supervised by Vicky Kalogeiton, Marc Christie, and Christophe Lino. I hold a Master’s in Mathematical and Computational Engineering from IMT Atlantique.

My research interests include computer vision, deep learning, and cinematography in two axes: extracting cinematic features and generating cinematic content.
