Owner of a PhD in political science from the University of Lausanne, a Master of Advanced Studies in political science from the University of Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne and a Master’s degree in political science from the University of Lausanne, I have also been awarded an SNSF “young researcher” grant (18 months stay at the Marc Bloch Centre in Berlin).

I then worked for the Federal Administration for about ten years, beginning in the Parliamentary Services of the Federal Assembly, then in the Federal Chancellery, and finally as Secretary General of the Independent Commission of Experts (CIE) on Administrative Detention. There, I participated in a five year long interdisciplinary research project on behalf of the Federal Council. I am currently Deputy Rector of the University of Lausanne.

As a certified expert coach (recognized by the International Coach Federation ICF), I put my experience and skills at the service of my clients and the success of their projects.

I am 47 years old, married with two children and passionate about music (guitar), mountain biking and running.

I look forward to meeting you!
