Here are some updates on my academic and personal journey ! 🎓 I have officially graduated from my Bachelor of Science - École Polytechnique with a double major in Mathematics and Physics and a minor in Biology. It represents three years of hard work and intense studies. It also means meeting amazing people that inspire me every day and creating life lasting friendships. 🍁 As part of my academic journey, I had the chance to spent a semester abroad in Canada, at Dalhousie University, where I studied oceanography and climate change putting my theoretical knowledge into more pratical issues. 🌤️ I had the opportunity to do my Bachelor Thesis research project at the Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique - IPSL, both at Ecole normale supérieure and École Polytechnique, with two very supportive supervisors, Riwal Plougonven and Amaury Lancelin. It made me realize that I love Geophysics and Climate sciences, and want to pursue a career in that topic. 🌍 Now, I am starting a two years master program in Environmental Sciences and Engineering at EPFL in Switzerland. I will attend a variety of courses on very diverse and interesting topics. I can’t wait to keep on nourishing my scientific curiosity in an excellent and dynamic environment. ⛵ And this summer has been very busy for me : I am now officially a sailing instructor as I have finished all stages of the Fédération Française de Voile sailing instructor training course in Les Glénans sailing school this summer. I am very excited to go sailing on the Lac Léman after my courses whenever I can. 🙏 Reflecting on those three years at Polytechnique, I also want to express my sincere gratitude to the people who supported me in my different projects, especially Professeur Guillaume Dubach and Professeur Riwal Plougonven who guided and supported me in my academic path. 🐚 I am very excited about what lies ahead, ready to continue growing, learning, and enjoying every moment!
