As part of the Aircraft Commission for Airexpo 2024, France’s third-largest airshow with more than 15 000 visitors and the only one in the world organised by students, I managed liaisons with the Armed Forces, coordinating six military crews, including the Patrouille de France. I also contributed to recruiting the 2025 team. This experience strengthened my organisation, negotiation, and teamwork skills within a 49-student structure, enhancing my ability to plan and manage complex events.

During my first-year engineering internship at Axima Concept, I worked in the gas workshop at the STMicroelectronics plant in Crolles France. I gained hands-on experience in industrial processes, including measuring, adapting designs, assembling, and installing gas distribution networks in clean rooms. This role enhanced my technical and problem-solving skills, while also deepening my understanding of safety regulations and collaboration within a high-tech industrial environment.

The ENAC Aeronautical Engineering curriculum provides a comprehensive education in aeronautics, air transport systems, and engineering sciences. Covering flight dynamics, avionics, operations management, and air traffic control, it combines theoretical knowledge and practical applications. With a strong focus on modelling, simulation (Python, Matlab, Simulink), and optimisation, this rigorous training prepares engineers to tackle the challenges of air transport innovation and safety.

In France, Classes Préparatoires aux Grandes Écoles are two-year programmes designed to prepare students for the competitive entrance exams to top engineering schools. These courses provide a rigorous academic foundation in mathematics, physics, and engineering sciences, as well as essential problem-solving and analytical skills. I completed my CPGE at Lycée Janson de Sailly in Parsi, in the PCSI (Physics, Chemistry, and Engineering Science) and PSI (Physics and Engineering Science) sections.
