Expertise

Datajournaliste chez mind depuis fin 2020, ma double formation en data science et en journalisme me permet de naviguer avec aisance entre la collecte, la visualisation et la mise en récit des données. Je développe des scrappers et des bots pour aspirer et mettre à jour des données publiques en continu, et je conçois des outils qui permettent à nos lecteurs d'explorer de larges volumes d'informations. Je suis également spécialisée dans l'utilisation de l'IA générative pour synthétiser des données textuelles complexes et en extraire les informations clés pour nos analyses, en particulier sur des sujets RSE tels que les accords d'entreprise.
