I am a researcher at the Astrophysics department of the Liège University (AGO) currently working on the preparation of the PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars (PLATO) space mission. I was previously involved in the development of softwares for the Gaia satellite and PI of the B-fields in OB stars survey (BOB) whose aim is to investigate the magnetic properties of massive stars.

My previous position was at KU Leuven to primarily study the chemical composition of pulsating β Cephei stars. I also worked at Palermo observatory on the photospheric abundances of active binaries, at IUCAA (India) and at Imperial College (UK), where I was involved in the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS). I did my Ph.D. Thesis on Wolf-Rayet stars at the Université de Montréal (Canada) and my M.Sc. at the Observatoire de Strasbourg (France). I undergraduated at the Université de Picardie (France).
