MVA | École Polytechnique

I am currently in my fourth and last year at École Polytechnique, enrolled in the MVA master’s program at ENS Paris-Saclay. I have a strong academic background in Statistics and Machine Learning from my years at École Polytechnique, where I specialized in Applied Mathematics.

Last year, I was an intern at Columbia University for four months, working on extra-chromosomal DNA in the Irving Institute for Cancer Dynamics. A year before that, I was a member of the Advanced Visualization team at GE HealthCare, where my internship project consisted in evaluating a Deep Learning algorithm for lung nodule detection and segmentation on CT scans.

Beyond academics, I’m passionate about hiking and traveling. Over the past few years and as part of my curriculum, I’ve had the opportunity to spend several months in both Côte d’Ivoire and the United States, which I really enjoyed. Music is another big part of my life – I’ve been playing the piano for over 10 years, and still love learning new pieces.
