Biography

Introduction

Hello, I am glad to see you landing on my profile!

I am passionate about being confronted with challenging technical problems and resolving them innovatively. I joined Concordia University as an associate professor in 2020 after a 10-year tenure at Bombardier. My research focuses on developing innovative design methodologies for drones (UAVs) and VTOL aircraft that require demonstrating high safety levels and redundancies, such as urban air taxis, flying ambulances, search and rescue vehicles, and medical or humanitarian delivery drones.

If you wish to do research (MASc, PhD) in my research area, or as an industrial or academic partner, are looking to collaborate on an innovative project, then do not hesitate to contact me !
