As part of the Air and Space Force’s Reserve Program (FMIR) from April to June 2024, I underwent intensive military training that combined physical discipline, aerospace culture, and operational readiness. This experience included weapons handling, synchronized marching, and military logistics, fostering teamwork, precision, and resilience in demanding environments. 

Successfully earning the Brevet de Perfectionnement à la Défense Nationale (PMI-PDN), I gained valuable insights into defense operations and leadership within a structured framework. This program strengthened my ability to perform under pressure, develop strategic thinking, and operate effectively within a team, skills that I aim to apply directly to engineering roles in the aerospace and defense industry.

During a lifeguard experience on the atlantic coast (Hossegor) in July 2023, I assisted in training ocean rescue techniques, emergency first aid, and coastal surveillance operations. This role immersed me in a high-pressure environment where split-second decision-making and teamwork were critical to ensuring public safety. I developed strong situational awareness, quick problem-solving abilities, and resilience under physically and mentally demanding conditions, obtained the PSC1 (First Aid Training Certification). 

This experience enhanced my organizational skills and my ability to perform efficiently in dynamic, high-stakes environments — qualities that I aim to leverage in my professional career, particularly within the aerospace and defense sectors.

In 2023 & 2024, I designed and delivered personalized lessons in mathematics and physics to high school students in Montpellier and Aix-en-Provence, helping them tackle subjects like differential equations, mechanics, and electromagnetism. By identifying their specific challenges, I created targeted strategies to simplify complex concepts and improve problem-solving skills.

Through this experience, I refined my ability to break down technical ideas into clear, structured explanations — an essential skill for communicating within multidisciplinary teams in aerospace projects. Balancing multiple students taught me adaptability, precision, and the importance of measurable progress under tight deadlines.

In September 2024, I took part in a local charity initiative aimed at restoring access to the Bibémus Quarry, a protected natural site renowned for its historical significance in Aix-en-Provence, my home town, and natural beauty. Alongside other volunteers, I contributed to the construction of a new access path and a concrete-wood staircase, improving safety and accessibility for visitors while respecting the site’s environmental constraints.

This hands-on experience taught me the value of collective effort, commitment to a meaningful cause, and working efficiently in a team on physically demanding tasks. It also reinforced my sense of social responsibility and my ability to engage directly with local communities to contribute to impactful, concrete projects.
