Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I help organizations transform complex subjects (today AI) into concrete, usable, and adopted systems.

My common thread is not just technical (edTech): it is based on what drives me the most, namely pedagogy, leadership of diverse teams, and the ability to make very different profiles work together.
