I graduated from a scientific master in physics and mechanics at Ecole Polytechnique. I switched to a MS in IT and computer sciences after a training period at Orange's Research Laboratories focused on machine learning. I have been working as an consultant since 2002, mainly for small to medium businesses, startups and financial institutions. My main fields of interest include infrastructure management, data processing, system and network programming, container technologies, open source, logic theory, information theory and cryptography. My knowledge of Cisco products is focused on security products, mainly ASA/FTD.
