I am a PhD researcher in law at the Université Libre de Bruxelles, where my doctoral work focuses on comparative constitutional law, with particular emphasis on transparency frameworks in public governance. My research examines how different constitutional systems structure access to information, integrity obligations, and accountability mechanisms, especially in the context of the European Union and its Member States.

My areas of academic interest and contribution include:

• Comparative constitutional law – institutional design, separation of powers, democratic accountability, and the constitutionalisation of transparency.
• European Union law and politics – institutional balance, public ethics systems, regulatory governance, lobbying transparency, and integrity frameworks.
• French constitutional and political system – constitutional practice under the Fifth Republic, executive–legislative relations, and public policy developments.
• Ethics and governance – conflicts of interest, revolving doors, lobbying regulation, and comparative oversight models.

My academic and professional trajectory combines research with practical engagement in public affairs and policy environments. I have experience across public, private, and civil society settings, which informs my comparative and interdisciplinary approach to governance questions. My work is particularly concerned with how legal frameworks translate into institutional practice and how transparency mechanisms function in politically sensitive environments.

My contributions aim to:

• Improve doctrinal precision and institutional accuracy.
• Strengthen articles with high-quality academic and official sources.
• Clarify complex constitutional and governance mechanisms in accessible language.
• Maintain strict neutrality in politically sensitive areas.

I intend to contribute substantially to articles related to constitutional law, EU governance, public ethics systems, and comparative transparency frameworks.
