🌍 I'm currently focused on accelerating climate intervention research and informed decisions on stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) as a potential tool to combat climate change.
🖇️ I'm an aerospace engineer with a multidisciplinary background intersecting Venture Capital, Aerospace, NewSpace, Aviation, Telecommunications, Renewable Energy, and Climate.
🛩️ Prior to Reflective, I led Airbus’ hydrogen-powered aircraft program in the U.S. — the aviation industry’s flagship effort to transition away from fossil fuels.
🚀 In my previous roles at Airbus, I spearheaded research and technology partnerships in North America across the company’s aircraft and space divisions. With a focus on sustainable aviation, AI, and satellite telecommunications, I built strategic alliances with government, industry, and academia nationwide.
🛰️ Before Airbus, I led special projects and strategic deals in the aerospace sector for the telecommunications company Orange in San Francisco— where I orchestrated the company’s first demonstration of direct-to-device satellite connectivity.
🚀 Prior to Orange, I worked on due diligence and business development efforts for an internationally acclaimed entrepreneur.
🎓 During my academic years, I enjoyed taking classes completely outside of my major while actively seeking exposure to interdisciplinary domains.
🇫🇷 Growing up in France, I developed an early desire to study in the best U.S. universities to be exposed to academic excellence in an international setting.
🔬 I acquired strong analytical skills in the laboratory environment, and my business acumen was shaped by the connections I forged outside of campus.
✨ Committed to revealing our oceans' hidden wonders to inspire their protection, I'm also an underwater photographer and member of The Explorers Club. 
Venture builder, Entrepreneur, Investor and Researcher in Digital Sustainable Finance.
I love problem solving, and the thrill of thinking on my feet. Currently, I am a Strikeforce Fellow/EIR for Peter Diamandis's private office, across investment, venture creation, speaking and writing. Previously, I was an investment and venture partner at a HK based family office, where I conduct research into technology, invest in dynamic and valuable relationships. I've spent years defining sustainability standards, creating digital solutions, and developing AI applications.
I was selected as part of the first batch of Schwarzman Scholars, where I completed a masters at Tsinghua University, and wrote my thesis on US-China cross border investment opportunities for renewable energy.
In my college years, I conducted research in genetic engineering at NASA Ames, for the iGEM competition, where we won Best New Application at the World Championships. I started Brown's first startup accelerator, and incubated 12 teams to maturation. I worked as a Teaching Fellow at Singularity University, co-founded by inventor Dr. Ray Kurzweil and entrepreneur Dr. Peter Diamandis.
I have a passion for public speaking and interacting with interesting people. I had the chance to open the iGEM World Championships in front of 1,000 people. I have attended and held workshops at Thiel Fellowship’s 20 Under 20 Summits, and was invited to Moscow as part of the 100 Young Innovators at the Open Innovation conference. I gave a TEDx talk at Brown about a globally distributed organisation we started called OneSalon - that provides intellectual, emotional and experiential stimulation on a weekly basis and grew to 13 cities around the world.
I worked as a professional Data Scientist -first at DARPA-funded machine learning company Ayasdi in Silicon Valley, then as a visiting DS at Snips in Paris, and then as rotated through several of Formation 8 VC's portfolio companies (Radius).
I co-founded Neurocurious - an AI-based preclinical CRO that provided behaviorial testing for rodents based on research at Brown.
I started an education endeavour in Shenzhen, exposing precocious high school students to the front lines of VR, AI, and entrepreneurship (http://prometheuseducation.org/)
I founded a blockchain engineering consulting company, we provided training fo the C-suite of Fortune 500 clients, and helped Veolia build an industrial blockchain usecase.
I founded Carbonbase - which builds sustainability and climate tech for companies and individuals to prepare for the climate transition
