I am a Ph.D. student in geography at the Pacte laboratory at the Institute of Urban Planning and Alpine Geography. My dissertation focuses on new development projects in glacial environments in the Alps.

I draw on approaches and methods from human geography. I seek to understand the physical changes and the diversity of territorial imaginaries associated with the retreat of Alpine glaciers. In particular, I focus on new development projects (dams, cable cars) located in Alpine glacial environments (glaciers and proglacial margins).
