About me
I am an assistant professor (enseignant-chercheur) in Human Systems Integration at ESTIA, in Bidart, France. My field sits between systems engineering and human factors. I design methods and tools that help people do cognitive work in complex sociotechnical systems: design, creativity and decision making.
I have worked on digital twins, control rooms and remote air traffic control towers, decision support systems, digital product passports for textiles and creativity support tools. Read more on my research page or browse my publications.
