I develop and validate sustainable infrastructure materials and road monitoring systems.

At Holcim-Lafarge, I led an innovative road rehabilitation project from planning through deployment, developing durable mix designs, infrastructure monitoring methodologies, and sensor-data KPIs for engineering decisions.

I've also built and field-validated multifunctional road-monitoring prototypes at Université Gustave Eiffel, combining geophones, accelerometers, signal processing, and numerical modelling. My work spans sustainable materials, product testing, technical assessments, patent support, and international R&D collaboration.
