Biographie
He graduated with a master in Engineering Sciences of the National School of Wood Technology and Industries (ENSTIB) in France. In the meantime, he also acquired a master in Business Administration (MBA).
Since November 2017, he has been a part of the NCCR Digital Fabrication as a PhD researcher at the Chair of Timber Construction at EPFL.
He is working on wood-wood connections for standard timber elements in construction.
