  • On spare time, conferences organization stuff:
    • Pass the SALT: creation+organization+curation with friends of Pass the SALT, a conference dedicated to Security and Free Software
      > From 2018 to now.
      > More info in the projects section.
    • RMLL Security track: we curated with friends the Security track of the RMLL, a french FLOSS conference
      > From 2008 to 2017.

    • Botconf: member of the organization team for the 2019 edition, acting as the local host and onsite manpower during the event.
  • Apart from that, I like living with longboard skates (failure on that point), waves, cats and unicorns around me.
