SSME Student · University of Geneva IT Project Management · AI · Data

I turn complex IT ideas into shipped, measurable products.

SSME student at the University of Geneva, headed for IT project management. I have planned and delivered a dozen projects, from AI platforms to UX case studies, in teams and solo. I bring structure, follow-through, and enough technical depth to build what I plan. Looking for an internship in IT project management, software development or data analysis.

About

The human behind the Gantt chart

My path was not linear, and that is the point. Business foundations at HEC Lausanne, logistics under pressure during military service, a document-archiving business I founded and ran for law firms, then a perfect-grade Python certification and the SSME program in Geneva.

Each step added a layer: how organisations work, how to deliver under constraints, how to win and keep clients, and how to build the product myself. That mix is what I bring to a project team: a manager who can read the code and a builder who respects the deadline.

Outside the code: mountain trails, ski slopes, a piano, and volunteering in humanitarian logistics for North Africa. I like teams, deadlines, and things that actually ship.

How I work
  • Scope honestly: a small thing shipped beats a big thing promised.
  • Show the messy middle: wireframes, tests and iterations are part of the deliverable.
  • Measure it: a project without numbers is just an opinion.
