Hi!

I'm from Montréal, Québec, but now in Germany at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research in the Neural Systems Department.

I'm currently pursuing a Master's degree in Computational Science & Engineering at EPFL in Switzerland.

I've worked on topics in connectomics, neural networks, knot theory and reinforcement learning.

My focus is on neural computation — biological and artificial.
