Hi, I'm Yan.
My job consists in helping companies and researchers to analyse their datasets. I am skilled for most data-science steps: data pre-processing, application of statistical methods, data visualization and results communication.
After having worked for renowned research institutes like the University of Queensland and private companies like Terres Inovia, I'm now working for Datadog as a software engineer.

"[...] Yan did an absolutely brilliant job. He has multiple skills and qualities making him a great data science project member, and even leader : excellent knowledge and learning ability of diverse statistical and data management tools obviously, and a real knack for data viz."
D. Gouache - Deputy Director at Terres Inovia
"Yan always performed with outstanding skills and impressive capacity for adaptation and efficiency. His job was crucial for the publication of important results. [...] I thus highly recommend him for any work concering framing and analysis of huge data sets."
J. David - Professor at Montpellier Supagro
"Yan has taught me everything I know about data visualization!
He taught my group how to display data in clever ways, and has been responsible for our recent
interactive website related to psychiatric epidemiology.
Also, he is a super-fast and
efficient bioinformatician. He has set up a pipeline to handle large genetic datasets and apply
modern analytic methods to explore the genetic architecture of traits and disorders.
He is a
super-bright guy – I can highly recommend him!"
John McGrath - Senior Researcher at the Queensland Brain Institute
