About me

Profile picture

I grew up in France until 11th grade, before moving to the United States with my dual French-American citizenship. This experience helped me adapt to new environments and build resilience. Throughout my higher education, I’ve honed my teamwork and technical skills through the education I received, coding projects, and an internship that further deepened my understanding of the professional world. Here are highlights of my experiences:

  • I recently graduated from the University of Florida with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science.
    [Aug. 2021 - Dec. 2024]
  • I collaborated with 4 team members to build and deploy a research collaboration web application using React (with Mantine) and Go (with Echo), enabling researchers to collaborate and search for funding opportunities.
    [Aug. - Dec. 2024]
  • Along with my 3 teammates, I contributed to building and deploying a restaurant finder web application that enables users to search for a restaurant by entering its name or a dish in a given city and to rate its dishes.
    [Jan. - Jul. 2023]
  • My teammate and I built a movie search engine in C++.
    [Nov. - Dec. 2022]
  • I did a summer internship at one of the largest French independent publishing companies: Eyrolles, in Paris, France. I developed a web application using PHP and its framework Symfony.
    [June - Aug. 2021]
