I am currently a postdoc at the University of Toronto, working with Edward Bierstone.
Previously, I did a postdoc at Université Paris Cité with André Belotto da Silva. I completed my PhD at the University of Angers, under the supervision of Jean-Philippe Monnier and Goulwen Fichou.
I am interested in singularity theory and algebraic geometry. More precisely, my PhD focused on the theory of complex regulous functions and on seminormalization in real algebraic geometry. After that, I worked on the relative Lipschitz saturation of algebraic varieties, and more recently, on seminormal toric varieties.
