Since Decembre 2019, I am a postdoctoral researcher advised by Jean-Daniel Fekete in the Aviz team of Inria, also part of Université Paris-Saclay.

I am interested in information visualization, network visual analysis, and interactions with a focus on designing scalable techniques or systems that enable interactive exploration of large or complex datasets. I am currently working on progressive visualization for network exploration.
