I am a second year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Inria Paris and École normale supérieure - PSL University, within the VALDA team. My research focuses on graph representation for multivariate time series analytics, supervised by Paul Boniol and Michael Thomazo.
Prior to this, I completed a double M.Sc. program in Computer Science at the National University of Singapore and in Applied Mathematics at ENSTA Paris - Institut Polytechnique de Paris. I previously earned a B.Sc. in Applied Mathematics at Université de Toulouse.
