Biography

I have always been passionate by science to learn about and understand the Universe around us. I therefore went in Physics at Université de Montréal (UdeM) for my B.Sc. during which I did a project studying the impact of supermassive black holes (SMBH) on their environment; black holes being my long time fascination. I was thrilled to continue in the same field for my M.Sc. studying the mass of a SMBH believed to be one of the biggest in the Universe in collaboration with Texas A&M University, where I spent three months. With this experience, an exchange in Australia and an internship in Germany, I knew that I wanted to do my PhD outside of Canada as, to me, it is really important to be in contact with people from around the world. Therefore, I am delighted to pursue a PhD at Cambridge in Astronomy studying mechanisms enabling SMBH to transfer energy to their surroundings. In addition to my research, I want to get involved in astronomy outreach in my department and in the city as I am very passionate about communicating science to my peers as well as to the general public. I want to encourage the curiosity of people especially children towards astrophysics and science. I also work to empower girls and women in physics, by helping in the creation of the Diversity Physics Committee at UdeM and participating to events for girls. I am really honoured to be part of the Gates Cambridge Community, an international community driven by having an impact in the world around them.
