Speaker Bio
After developing solid foundation in engineering, I embarked on my professional
journey in France within the energy sector, where I grow my skills in various operational and project roles, particularly in natural gas infrastructure development. I transitioned to the mining industry over a decade ago, immersing myself in the intricate world of nickel production. Fascinated by its complexity, I have since dedicated myself to enhancing technical and operational practices, cultivating a deep understanding of the challenges and intricacies inherent in the sector. In my current capacity, my focus is singularly dedicated to advancing energy efficiency and spearheading the decarbonization efforts across Glencore's nickel assets. I relish the opportunity to bridge the gap between the energy and mining sectors, leveraging my expertise to drive tangible progress in reducing environmental impact while optimizing operational performance.
