I am currently a Research Scientist (Chargé de recherche) at INRIA Grenoble - Rhône-Alpes, THOTH team. Before that, I was a Starting Research Fellow at the same team working with Julien Mairal. I completed my Ph.D. in 2021 at the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit of University College London under the supervision of Arthur Gretton. Even before that, I graduated from Ecole polytechnique with a focus in Applied Mathematics and obtained a Masters Degree in Mathematics, Machine Learning and Computer Vision (MVA) from ENS Paris-Saclay.

My research interests include Bilevel optimization, Generative modelling, Learning Theory and Representation Learning.
