Former student of Ecole Normale Supérieure, he earned a Phd in mathematics at Université Pierre et Marie Curie in 2011. After a post-doctoral position at UC Berkley, he became Assistant Professor at Université Paris-Diderot in 2012, before joining Université Paris-Dauphine in 2019 as Full Professor.
