Biography

I am Associate Professor at the University of Nantes (France) teaching software engineering at the Department of Computer Science. For my research activity, I am a member of the NaoMod group in the Laboratory of digital sciences of Nantes (LS2N).

Previously I was a post-doc researcher in the Business Informatics Group (BIG) of TU Wien (Austria), working with Manuel Wimmer and Tanja Mayerhofer. Before that I was a pre-doc researcher in the DiverSE group at IRISA under the supervision of Benoit Baudry and Benoit Combemale.
