I am a geographer whose research focuses on ocean geography, more specifically on the relations between human groups and maritime space. Through the lens of STS and critical approaches, I particularly use the case of fisheries and marine renewable energy in marine spatial planning to study how power relations and knowledge issues intertwine in (geo)technological devices (maps, data portals...) that ultimately shape 'socio-technical agencements' forming an intermediate with the marine 'environment'.
