He is an active member of the National Consultative Council for People with Disabilities (CNCPH).

Education includes a doctorate in Political Science (2005) from Paris-1 Panthéon Sorbonne University and a law degree in Political Science (2015).

Research Focus: His work centers on rights policies, state modernization, and disability studies, with specific expertise in:

• Governance of disability policies in France
• Electoral participation of people with disabilities
• Deployment of IT tools in French public administration
• Intersections of law, technology, and social policy

Methodologically, he employs sociological and political science frameworks to analyze policy implementation and institutional change.

Publication Trends: Recent works (2018-2023) demonstrate a strong focus on disability rights, electoral accessibility, and technology's impact on governance. Earlier publications (2014-2016) frequently examine data systems in public administration and historical computerization of electoral processes. His scholarship consistently engages with French policy contexts while incorporating comparative perspectives (e.g., U.S. electoral politics).
