Resume
I am an an associate professor at INSA Rennes, with a joint appointment at the IETR laboratory. My current research efforts concentrates on compilation for MPSoC and FPGA. I am interested in embedded systems programming, compilation and hardware architecture.
I received the Engineering and Master degrees in Electrical Engineering from Polytech’Orléans, France, in 2011, and the Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from INSA Lyon, France, in 2014, working with the CITI-Inria laboratory in collaboration with CEA LETI. I previously worked at Nokia in Berkeley, California, National Instruments in Austin, Texas and IRISA laboratory in Rennes, France.

Miscellaneous
Most of my free time is spent outside, either high up in the mountains or deep down freediving, and I usually carry a camera:
