I joined the French Foreign Legion in my late teens and served with the 2e REI, where I learned discipline, teamwork and resilience. Those values still shape how I approach work today: I’m dependable, diligent and calm under pressure, always aiming to do things properly. I’m friendly, down-to-earth and enjoy collaborating with others to solve problems and deliver solid results. In 2004 I pivoted into IT and built a career around data, dashboards and business insight. I’ve led QlikView/Sense initiatives, integrated data from multiple sources, mentored junior developers, and focused on secure, scalable solutions. I’m motivated by continuous learning and applying practical technology to help organizations make better decisions.
