At EPFL, he completed a bachelor's degree in architecture and then a master's degree with a major in architecture (School of Architecture, Civil and Environmental Engineering) and a minor in Energy (Mechanical Engineering Department). After his degree, he worked first at EPFL as a teaching assistant in architecture for a master student studio project relating to studies of Easter Island (FAR Lab led by Pr. Paolo Tombesi) and also as a scientific collaborator at the structural exploration Lab (led by Pr. Corentin Fivet in Fribourg) on a specific project called « mapping Geneva's embodied carbon legacy » in collaboration with the HABITAT Research Center. Then he worked in France for four years in the private sector (consultant for ELIOTH on sustainable harbor strategy & planning, design office manager of Energy Observer Developments on hydrogen applications for city & mobility, and independent architect on renovation projects) as well as in the public service (design expert on hydrogen refueling station planning for the Departmental Energy Syndicat of Ille-et-Vilaine).
