Computer Engineering Student at University of Technology of Compiègne (UTC)
Passionate about Media Creation, Embedded Systems, and AI (especially LLMs).

About Me

I am a Computer Engineering student at UTC Compiègne (Expected 2026) driven by a curiosity for creating innovative technology at the intersection of software and hardware. My interests span across development, LLMs optimization, embedded systems design, hardware prototyping, and interactive audiovisual experiences.

Through internships, academic projects, and personal initiatives, I've gained hands-on experience in developing desktop/mobile applications, building and fine-tuning AI models, designing/repairing electronic systems, and managing full-stack web projects. I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy tackling complex technical challenges, from low-level hardware repairs to high-level system architecture. I am currently seeking a final-year internship where I can contribute to cutting-edge projects in these fields.
