I'm a first-year MCB master's student in Grenoble; next year I'm moving on to the Pro2Bio M2, with a neuroscience focus. Getting there wasn't part of any plan — I took a neurobiology course almost as a formality, had a professor who was genuinely excited about the subject and transmitting knowledge, and that excitement turned out to be contagious enough to change my whole trajectory.

Outside of coursework I build things: some bioinformatics-adjacent, some desktop apps, some reverse engineering. It usually starts with something that bugs me, like a feature moved behind a paywall or a file format nobody documented, and ends with a tool that fixes it for everyone. When I'm not doing that, I'm usually playing electric guitar, which is also the reason TabEngine exists.

Longer term, I'm aiming for a research engineer role in neuroscience, most likely somewhere in the neural regeneration / 3D imaging space (tissue clearing, light-sheet microscopy). Still a few years out, but that's the direction I'm rowing in.

Reach out:

MHGU Save Editor The most polished thing I've shipped so far. A desktop save editor for Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate (Switch, emulator saves), written in Rust + Slint, on top of a save format I reverse-engineered and documented myself. Every value is read where the game keeps it, every edit is described in game terms before anything touches the file, and every edit has been verified in game. Nothing is written until you review it, and a snapshot is taken before every write. Single-file builds for Linux (AppImage) and Windows, in the game's five languages.

TabEngine A close second. A free, open-source desktop guitar tab player for Guitar Pro files (GP3/4/5/GPX) — no account, no ads, no premium wall. I built it because Songsterr kept moving free features behind a paywall. It's licensed GPLv3 specifically so it can't be forked and resold: free now, free forever.

SeqProfiler
Multi-FASTA bioinformatics pipeline in Python. ORF detection on both strands, transcription, translation, and biochemical properties (T_m, pI, extinction coefficients, molecular mass) — no BioPython. Built from scratch because I wanted to understand the math, not just call a function. Still tinkering with it — less about adding features at this point, more about using it as a reason to go deeper on both the biology and the code.

GeneticDriftSim
Wright-Fisher population genetics simulator. Tracks allele frequency drift, mutation, and fixation across generations in finite populations.

MacOS-Like
Icon themes for KDE Plasma and GTK built on top of MacTahoe. Every installed app MacTahoe has no artwork for gets its icon placed on a matching Tahoe-style tile, and the dark variant gets real dark glass tiles instead of reusing the light theme's white ones.
