About Me

My research focuses on command selection, gestural interaction, and on-body interaction. My goal is to design simple interactions that users can learn and perform efficiently without hindering their expressivity. I am also interested in understanding how users memorize and what mechanisms can be used to help them in their task. I currently focus my work on leveraging the body to design novel interactions for supporting post-WIMP interfaces and evaluating new ways of interacting enabled by the human skin. I am currently a postdoctoral research fellow at the Human-Computer Interaction and Interactive Technologies Lab in Saarland University working with Jürgen Steimle. I hold a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science focused on Human-Computer Interaction from Télécom ParisTech. This Ph.D. was supervised by Eric Lecolinet from LTCI - Télécom ParisTech and Olivier Chapuis from the LRI and Inria. Here is my CV.
