He taught at the University of Montpellier, and possibly also at Paris.[1] He is known as the author of a 1271 commentary on the De Sphera Mundi of Johannes de Sacrobosco.

He is also the author of the paper (or parchment) "Astrolabii Canones", which provided important principles for measurement on spheres.
