Summary
I am currently a PhD student in Science (Computer Science) in the Software Engineering Lab of the Faculty of Sciences from the University of Mons. My thesis is co-supervised by Prof. Tom Mens, head of that lab, and Dr. Mohamed-Anis Gallas, from the Architectural Design Unit of the Faculty of Architecture and Urban planning.
As part of my work, I'm interested in applying augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) in the context of computer-aided architectural design (CAAD). As using those technologies requires new kinds of interfaces and interaction paradigms, I'm also interested in human-computer interaction (HCI).

Vulgarisation
I regularly take part in vulgarisation activities, targeting different types of audience (children, high school students, adults, etc). Among others, I took part in:
La Nuit des Chercheurs 2016
with my MA1 project Whac-A-LEDLe Festival du Printemps des Sciences 2017
with my Master's thesis project HoloEscapeLes Journées Math-Sciences 2018
, where I gave an introduction to programming for high school studentsLe Festival du Printemps des Sciences 2018
, where I presented a gamified version of the tool I built for parametric modelling in VR
