I recently obtained my PhD at the Department of Mathematics at KU Leuven under supervision of Stefaan Vaes. I am supported by the FWO research grant 1162024N. In November, I will start a post-doc position at the École Normale Supérieur in Paris with Cyril Houdayer.

My research is mainly focussed on the study of von Neumann algebras associated to groups, group actions on probability spaces, or more generally groupoids. In particular, I am interested in rigidity phenomena.
In my free time, I enjoy playing and listening to music (some songs I like).
