I am a Data Scientist from applied mathematics in statistics and economics. My life is driven by fun and passion in everything I do. I choosed Math, not because I was good at it, but I was weirdly attracted to it. Applied Math is to genuinely go from a well set of theories or hypothesis to formulas that could be calibrated for a given market. It is like trying to put the world in an equation, yes I am a sort of mythic econometrician. And having enormous data in these recent years make me go deeper in learning all about self driving car, Natural Language processing, GPUs, Distributed System of nodes and so on. It is like we can not disentangle knowledges between making algorithm for a system of computers and the architecture that goes with it. We have to go from data ingestion, data processing, and then to apps development upon it. I am happy to be on the road of learning all that.

I am an Economist graduated from the Toulouse School of Economics. I am fond of rational expectations theory from Robert Lucas 1972 and market theory and organization from my 2014 Economic Nobel Prize teacher, Jean Tirole.

Find me somewhere in the painting, I think I’d have something to say.
