Bridging Hardware
& Strategic Vision.

I am an engineering student at Mines Saint-Étienne, bridging the gap between hardware reliability and AI innovation.

My technical core lies in building scalable embedded systems (STM32, IoT) and secure architectures. However, I believe engineering isn't just about execution—it's about understanding the world technology shapes.

Deeply invested in the geopolitics of technology, I tackle challenges related to digital sovereignty and AI ethics. My goal: design solutions that are technically flawless, strategically autonomous, and socially responsible.
