I study management at HEC Lausanne. Before that, one year of computer science at EPFL. I've shipped apps that real people used, co-founded a TEDx, and built automations that saved clients time and money.
A client was losing around 120 hours a year moving data by hand. I built them an automation system, n8n and Python with an LLM doing the hard work, that took most of it off their plate. The contract puts the saving at CHF 6,000 a year. I built it between July and September 2025, and it's still running.
I still advise them informally, mostly on new AI opportunities.
Five summers at Idiap, one of Europe's serious AI and machine-learning labs. The work itself was unglamorous but important: annotating and collecting data across face recognition, vein biometrics, presentation-attack detection, and audio.
I started the first summer at 15.
I co-founded and ran two TEDxYouth events in Martigny: 300+ people, ten speakers, four of us doing everything. I was 16 for the first one and hosted it as MC; in 2021 I took on stage direction and the whole program. The 2020 edition died to COVID, which was its own lesson in plans.
Picking and coaching speakers, day-of logistics, marketing, the licensing with TEDxMartigny/Neurhone, the school partnerships. All of it.
A loyalty app for small businesses, the digital version of the paper card your café stamps. I built it and shipped it to the App Store and Google Play on my own.
The name's redacted: someone filed a trademark on it after I launched.
A multilingual Secret Santa app: wishlists, budgets, automatic matching, the emails. I built it for my family and, honestly, as an excuse to learn some new tech.
A small iOS memory journal. Three-second clips or dual-camera photos, no feed, no followers, offline-first with iCloud sync. I wanted the opposite of a social app.
I'm in my third year of management at HEC Lausanne, with a focus on digital business. What I care about sits between strategy and the systems meant to deliver it: why good technology so often fails on contact with the organization it was built for, and why the reasons are rarely technical. My father has worked in machine learning and the Swiss startup world since 2006, so some of this I absorbed before I ever chose it.
If any of this made you want to talk, about a role, a project, or just because you disagree, I'd like to hear it.
