I'm an IT professional with a Swiss Federal Vocational Diploma in Computer Science, a Swiss Federal Diploma of Higher Education in Software Development and a Bachelor of Science in Business Information Technology from the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Western Switzerland (HES-SO) in Geneva. I am pursuing Information Science, with a research interest in safety and emergency management information practices.

I've worked as a Developer at the University of Lausanne (UNIL) and for various private companies over the years, specializing in Free and Open Source Software. I am the author of the Decentralized Emergency Management Protocol (DEMP).

Off the clock, I'm an experienced long-distance runner who takes on challenges with discipline, dedication and a commitment to excellence.
