Biographie

I'm Co-founder and CPTO at Aiffin, an AI-native fintech company building the next generation of AI digital infrastructure for SME financing and Underwriting. I lead product strategy and technology, focusing on applying AI to automate financial decision-making. In 2025, Aiffin raised €3.1 million in debt and equity, obtained French JEI status, and joined Station F in Paris. In 2026, I was endorsed by Tech Nation and recognized by the UK Government as an Exceptional Global Talent in Digital Technology. I built and scaled technology products across fintech, AI, Web3, SaaS and digital identity. My experience includes developing platforms used by millions of users, building financial infrastructure, and designing AI-powered systems for credit decisioning, risk assessment, KYC and AML.
