About
Since the beginning of my studies, my motivation has always been to participate in projects developing innovative scientific solutions for the benefit of people's well-being. The various positions I have held so far in preclinical R&D have allowed me to explore different environments, meet talented people, and acquire valuable technical and interpersonal skills. I recently took on a new challenge by pursuing advanced training in Data Science. Throughout my journey, my goal has always been to thrive in my role by leveraging my experience while continuing to learn.
