On the academic side, I obtained an engineering degree from ISAE-SUPAERO (Toulouse, France), specializing in industrial engineering and decision sciences. I also obtained a Master 2 Research degree from the same school in the field of Science, Technology and Health. I then completed a PhD in Administration in the Operations and Logistics Management Department at HEC Montréal, under the co-supervision of Professors Raf Jans and Jean-François Cordeau. My thesis focused on the integration of production and distribution decisions in three-tier supply chains. My thesis proposes mathematical models and solution algorithms for the integration of production and distribution planning decisions within a company with a factory, several distribution centers and several points of sale.

My current research focuses on the use of operations research in production planning and for the integration of corporate operational decisions (production, distribution, replenishment and warehousing). In particular, I'm interested in the vertical integration of production/distribution and production/maintenance. I'm also interested in the impact of societal change, the evolution of business practices in corporate operations, and Industry 5.0 issues. On this last point, I'm looking at how emerging technologies are redefining models and methods for solving classic operations research problems.
