Bio

I have a doctorate in sociology and graduated in Political Science. I have worked for over ten years as an expert in the "Usage and User Experience (Ux) group" for the CEA (Commissariat à l’Énergie Atomique et aux Énergies Alternatives) at the MINATEC Campus in Grenoble (France). I have lived in Canada since 2014 where I have been welcomed as an associate researcher in the Interdisciplinary Institute for Technological Innovation (3IT) at the University of Sherbrooke. one of my research area is to promote artistic experimentation (notably body language) as an enriching vector in technological development. My work has led to an approach, the so-called "Dancestorming" approach, which invites people tu use their body, their body sensations and emotions to improve their innovative projects.
