I am an interdisciplinary scholar. I was born and raised in Montréal, Québec. I have been living in Europe for over a decade. Between 2017 and 2023, I taught public economics, economic history and microeconomics to undergraduate students at Goldsmiths, in the South East of London. In December 2023, I joined the University of Lorraine, in Nancy, and the BETA research unit.
I am a member of the following learned societies:
REHPERE, ESHET, HES, Charles Gide, THETS
I graduated in mathematics from the Université de Montréal. I was then elected on the student union executive committee (FAÉCUM) where I spent a year defending students' rights and interests. I then turned to economics and obtained a master degree from the Université de Montréal. Soon after, I studied history of economic thought and philosophy of economics in Paris. I continued my graduate studies in joint supervision between the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne and the University of Lausanne and obtained my PhD in economics in December 2016, after spending an academic year as a visiting student at the Centre for Philosophy of Natural and Social Science (CPNSS) at the London School of Economics.
