I am a tenured research scientist (Chargé de recherche) at Inria in the Magnet team. From 2021 to 2025, I was fortunate to work as a postdoctoral researcher with Prof. Mario Fritz at the CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security (Germany) on Trustworthy Machine Learning with a focus on Security & Privacy.
Before joining CISPA, I completed my Ph.D. in computer science at Inria Grenoble in the Privatics team, where I had the honor of being supervised by Prof. Claude Castelluccia (Privatics team-Inria) and Prof. Pierre Genevès (LIG and Tyrex team-Inria). During my Ph.D., I worked on differentially private federated learning, studying the compatibilities and incompatibilities between privacy, security, bandwidth efficiency, and utility. I was also affiliated with the Chair on legal and regulatory implications of artificial intelligence. Prior to that, I had the privilege of working with Prof. Mérouane Debbah.
