Présentation
After a 2-year Undergraduate program in Mechanical Engineering, I pursued in the aerospace industry through a Master's apprenticeship program. This atypical path led to several achievements: After graduation, two colleagues and I decided to start an entrepreneurship project based on the development of a regional network for recycled materials between companies in the aerospace industry. The project suffered from a lack of financial support and ended in 2017. As a space science and space exploration enthusiast, I enrolled in a Ph.D. Graduate program in Space Engineering at Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech, USA) in January 2018. My research on the Earth’s atmosphere dynamics was funded by NASA and NSF from May 2019 to May 2021, and led to: Today, I am a research engineer in space surveillance and tracking at ONERA – The French Aerospace Lab in Toulouse (France) where major challenges are waiting to be faced.
