Student at the École Nationale Supérieure d'Arts et Métiers, passionate about optimization, looking for a Master of Science in Industrial Engineering.
I am an engineering student at Arts et Métiers ParisTech with a strong focus on industrial systems optimization and data-driven decision making. My international background — having lived in Tunisia, Gabon, Guatemala, Congo, and the United Kingdom during my formative years — has shaped my adaptability and cross-cultural perspective.
Through my exposure to the industrial world, particularly in the oil and gas sector during my time in Congo, I developed a keen interest in operational efficiency and process optimization. This early exposure continues to drive my passion for improving complex systems.
I combine strong mathematical modeling skills with hands-on experience in manufacturing, simulation, and process improvement. My goal is to design and optimize complex engineering systems that not only improve performance but also enhance working conditions.
Through my professional experiences, I have gained hands-on exposure to industrial environments and real-world problem-solving. These roles required adaptability, precision, and the ability to structure and implement effective solutions in dynamic contexts.
From technical tasks in industrial settings to client interaction and solution deployment, I developed a strong capacity to operate efficiently, communicate clearly, and deliver tangible results.
View all Professional ExperiencesThroughout my engineering training at Arts et Métiers ParisTech, I have conducted laboratory experiments bridging theory and practice in mechanics, thermofluids, and materials science. These experiences required rigorous analysis, measurement, and modeling of real-world systems.
From structural mechanics to flow analysis and materials characterization, these lab works strengthened my technical understanding and analytical rigor, which I apply to every engineering problem.
View all Lab WorksBeyond laboratory work, I have led and contributed to engineering projects focused on modeling, optimization, and real-world system design. These experiences allowed me to apply mechanical, data, and materials science to concrete challenges.
From developing sensor-based systems to analyzing mechanical structures and building data tools with Python, these projects strengthened my ability to design efficient, practical, and robust solutions.
View all ProjectsThroughout my academic path, I have sought to balance technical rigor with human engagement. I approach challenges with both analytical precision and an awareness of their human impact, ensuring that solutions are not only efficient but also meaningful and accessible.
