Bio

I am a Senior Research Scientist at IBM T. J. Watson Research Center. My research focuses on using AI to improve large-scale systems. I work at the intersection of networking, graph learning, and foundation models for structured data.

I received my Ph.D. from Carnegie Mellon University in 2010 and a Diplôme d’Ingénieur from the École Nationale Supérieure des Télécommunications de Bretagne in 2000. Before joining IBM, I was a Research Engineer at Nokia Research Center, focusing on networked systems and mobile technologies.
