As a long-time Aïkido practitioner ► literally "the Way of Harmonising Energies" ◄ I strongly believe in the power of Synergies.

As teacher, project manager, innovator, as well as head of a unit composed by 30 members, I like putting people together and do my best to meet everyone's needs. I put the clients’ results and satisfaction first and take an agile approach to manage teams, projects, courses, ... 

With more than 12 years dealing with Internet of Things technologies, my passion is to innovate and serve people in fast moving environment, putting User eXperience in the center. I definitely consider technology as a mean, not a final goal. 

I studied business information systems at the University of Grenoble, France, then studied telecommunications at the University of Tours, France. From 1998-2002 he worked at ATOS Origin, a large European IT service company, as application manager & project manager. Since 2002 I have been working at the Institute of Information Systems at HES-SO Valais-Wallis and since 2011 I am responsible for the sofware engineering unit.

I'm organized, pragmatic, creative and enterprising, with a keen team spirit and excellent interpersonal skills. My current research activities are focused on Smart Cities applications, Internet of Things and mobile services.
