I want my career to be led by international challenges in innovative electronic companies. I'm excited by team play work in multicultural environments.
I am skilled in both Engineering and Marketing/Sales. My engineering degree in EE has given me an important logical and mathematical reasoning so that I have a good critical and analytical mind. And the Business specialized Master degree allowed me to have the overall strategic vision and the Business dimension necessary for the management of innovative projects.
I specialized in “Designing and Integrating Electronics Systems” during the last two years of my ESIEE Engineering course while I was in an academic exchange program in Madrid and then in Southampton. During these years abroad, I considerably improved my English and Spanish. I also increased my openness and my flexibility to multicultural environments that made me able to work efficiently in Cascoda (ASIC Design Engineer) and then Texas Instruments (Business Development Engineer).
Curiosity is the main feature my colleagues, friends and family use to describe me. I am constantly getting informed about technological, political, economic and environmental news, allowing to have strong interest in High-Tech projects and a passionate discussion about the Electronics Industry.
I am from the Parisian region where my three brothers (being the 2nd) and my parents still live.
