Who am I ?

Passionate about the ocean and nature, I am a geoscientist specialized in oceanograhy,  climate, palaeoclimates, environmental and ocean conditions. My work is based on plankton organisms studies, their taxonomy as well as their morphometry and geochemistry. As a plankton specialist, I enjoy working with tiny coccoliths (phytolplankton) and planktonic foraminifera (zooplankton) ! I am particularly interested in the "recent" Earth history: From Miocene (around 20 My ago) to present, and mostly located in equatorial areas. I aim to further understand (past) climates and environments in order to preserve our present and future ones.

I am a freelance scientific mediator. My several participations to international conferences and scientific mediation events have confirmed my interest in taking an active part in research and in communicating about this research, popularizing science to non-specialists from children to adults.

I love to draw and am a freelance illustrator, enjoying representing science concepts and marine organisms. I really appreciate the naturalistic approach, observing the organisms and drawing them for a scientific purpose (encyclopedia and description). Go have a look on my portfolio !

Highly multidisciplinary, I am working on transverse research, mixing Climate, Oceanography, Geology, Ecology, population dynamics and Environment, and create mediation articles and (naturalistic) illustrations about it.
