He earned his PhD at PMMH in Paris with Benjamin Thiria and Sylvain Courrech du Pont, where he studied bioinspired propulsion efficiency. He then moved to Princeton University, where he worked with Luc Deike on ocean-atmosphere interaction problems linked to sea salt aerosol production.
He studies fluid dynamics, with an interest in interfacial problems and ocean-atmosphere interactions. His work ranges from small-scale bubble dynamics to turbulent fragmentation and aggregation, with an experimental approach.
