About David

Sports & Data Scientist, I leverage my skills in data analysis and modeling to optimize sports performance. Coming from the CETAPS laboratory (University of Rouen Normandy), my experience with the French Swimming Federation focused on processing complex data (kinematics, dynamics, physiology, GPS, etc.).
I have worked with various federations, clubs, and sports organizations to understand and optimize performance.

I combine advanced mathematical methods, programming tools (especially R, Python, Matlab), and good project management practices to transform raw data into actionable insights, clear visualizations, and predictive models. My goal: to propose concrete and reproducible solutions, adapted to needs.
