I am in my second year of PhD studies, supervised by Dr. Erwan FAOU. My research focuses on dispersive effects for the Vlasov-HMF (Hamiltonian Mean-Field) PDE system, a toy model for plasma particle dynamics. The goal is to explore non-linear Landau damping, with plans for numerical analysis and scientific computing later in the project.
Before my PhD, I earned my master’s in Fundamental Mathematics (Analysis and applications research track) from the University of Rennes in 2024 and my Bachelor of Arts, with a major in Mathematics from Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH (USA) in 2022. I completed my pre-tertiary A- and O-level studies at Royal College Port Louis in Mauritius.
When I’m not doing math, I’m either running with my club or tending to my honeybees. If you’re into honey bees or just curious, feel free to ask—I love sharing the buzz about my hives!
