He brings more than ten years of post-Ph.D. experience in socioeconomic-based actionable research. As an economic geographer by training, he approaches his projects through a lens of all things being connected through space; whether this is through the sharing of physical land or economic interdependency.

Additionally, he leads projects involving Market Assessment and Planning of tourism and recreation regions, assets, and investments.

L’informatique, au-delà d’être mon métier est ma passion.
Certains diraient que je suis touche-à-tout ou bidouilleur, mais je ne fais que rechercher à comprendre le monde dans lequel je vis pour permettre d'améliorer celui-ci.
Mon plus grand regret est de ne pas avoir assez de temps pour tout explorer et tout apprendre. Heureusement, mon meilleur allié, internet, est là pour m’épauler dans cette quête complexe de savoir.
La généralisation d'IA comme ChatGPT, GitHub-Copilot, Bard et autres permettent l'ouverture et la facilitation dans cette quête se savoir, tant que l'on sait les maîtrisers.

Mais je ne m’arrête pas à l’informatique, je suis adepte des bons comportements et pratique, depuis la faculté, des recherches et la mise en place de gestes verts, que ce soit dans mon code comme dans ma vie au quotidien.
J'adore aborder des sujets de droits, comme dans les articles sur la RGPD que j'ai écris sur le blog de Younup.
Et je m'intéresse aussi un peu à la sociologie. Comprendre comment le cerveau fonctionne, comment on interagie en société, ou encore enseigner des notions de mon métier.
