I am a PhD student at Université Libre de Bruxelle, working with Christophe Petit. I do research mostly in isogeny-based cryptography, either looking for algorithmic improvements to systems or investigating their security claims.

I did a Masters of Mathematics at the University of Waterloo with David Jao. My thesis was about using SQISign in an adaptor signature. Slides.
