Aerospace/Robotics engineer and entrepreneur, I am currently working on Beyond Line of Sight autonomy for UAVs at Amazon Prime Air as an applied scientist. My academic background combines the thorough analytical competence of the French educational system, and the effective practical approach of one of the second best aerospace programs in the US. In addition and through my experience, I acquired teamwork and leadership abilities as well as good presentation skills to present my findings to diverse audiences. |

My primary interest lies in UAVs/drones as their design implies all the main disciplines of aerospace engineering such as aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, with a strong emphasis on control, optimization, automation, and computer-science-linked topics like computer vision or structure from motion. My academic background spans from fixed-wing design, applied nonlinear control, advanced design methods, design optimization, advanced dynamics, to computer vision and 3D reconstruction.
I obtained a M.Sc. in Aerospace Engineering from the SUPAERO program at the Institut Supérieur de l'Aéronautique et de l'Espace (ISAE) in France and continued with a second masters in Aerospace Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology. I have geared my research towards robotics and Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs). At SUPAERO, I had the chance to co-lead the ISAE MAV Club during 2 years with the help of my teammates and Dr. Jean-Marc Moschetta. At Georgia Tech, I had the opportunity to work under the guidance of Dr. Frank Dellaert on amazing robotics and computer vision projects. I have also been working in the Advanced Systems Design Laboratory (ASDL) laboratory with Dr. Mavris on multidisciplinary design optimization, drones, and swarm robotics. Recently, I completed my Ph.D. degree at Georgia Tech by working on a complete methodology for the optimal design of multi-agent systems: the MASDeM (Multi-Agent Systems Design Methodology).
In November 2014, a good friend of mine Christopher Frank invited me to take part in the creation of a startup company as the chief technical officer. This company, named Tallyos, focuses on the development and distribution of time and attendance solutions and has been rewarded several subventions and distinctions over the past few years.
After two successful internships with Amazon Prime Air, I rejoined the team full-time in 2017 to continue working on the autonomy algorithms for the MK27 aircraft. I am looking forward to contributing to the early days of drone delivery systems.
