About Me
Allured by science and technology from an early age, my curiosity, sense of discovery and desire for change led me to an education in innovation engineering.
Interested by the future of our societies, I realized the magnitude of the challenges we are facing. This led me so far to turn away from a traditional career to seek for a meaningful way of life and engagement towards a desirable common future.
Therefore, I am looking for development activities closer to the ground, sparing in resources consumption, empowering, socially fair, respectful of the living life and individuals, bringing more harmony inside and around us.
