I am a tenure-track assistant professor at the University of Toronto since 2023. I did my phD at the IMJ-PRG (Université Paris-Diderot) under the supervision of Marc Hindry.
My research interest lies in arithmetic geometry, at the intersection of arithmetic statistics and Diophantine geometry. I am interested in elliptic surfaces, or families of elliptic curves, and various related objects like root number and del Pezzo surfaces. A few years ago, I was more on the analytic side of number theory, but I seem to have moved to algebraic geometry tools in order to understand the distribution of rational points. Whatever the technique or the field, my passion lies in arithmetic questions.
This semester (Fall 2026), I am teaching Introduction to number theory (Mat315) at the Mississauga campus. Next semester (Winter 2027), I will teach Vector Calculus (Mat236) at the St-George campus.
Random details about me: I am partially supported by an NSERC Discovery grant. Ma langue maternelle est le français. Ich kann auch Deutsch reden. I am a novelist and I volunteer sometimes as a literary editor. I want to read more math fictions!
Prospective students: As of September 2026, I will possibly accept a new supervision at MSc level.
