Profile :
Tenured Research Fellow in geography since 2016 and affected at the Université Gustave Eiffel (formerly IFSTTAR), after a first career as a cartographic engineer (2004-2016). I did my PhD thesis in geography - territorial sciences at the Université Paris Diderot (formerly Paris 7), within the UMR 8504 Géographie-cités / PARIS team, under the direction of Pr. Claude Grasland (PR) and the co-direction of Christine Zanin.
I am particularly interested in the theoretical and methodological aspects of the cartographic construction of flows and movements in geographical space. My current work is organized around three axes: the consolidation of the concept of "movement" introduced in the thesis; the participation in the development of innovative tools for the analysis and geo-visualization of territorial interactions for various publics (see in particular arabesque); the development of a critical deconstructionist approach to (thematic) statistical cartography, in particular that related to global migratory movements.
