As researcher and data scientist, I assist policy makers in monitoring, evaluating and developing their policies. Through the strategic application of data, I offer policy makers maximum insight in their field. I am involved in various public policy areas, including digitalisation, innovation, education and labour market, and healthcare. Alongside my work at Dialogic, I work at the Utrecht Data School (Utrecht University).

In recent years I have done a great deal of work for various ministries (Finance, Economic Affairs, Education Culture & Science) as well as for several provinces, municipalities, industry associations, other (semi) public institutions and private clients.

In 2015, I completed a course on ‘Big Data Strategy & Analytics’. Before that, I obtained my master’s in Innovation Sciences at Università L. Bocconi in Milan and at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), where I also completed my bachelor’s degree in Innovation Sciences and the TU/e Honours Program. I was world champion professional gaming twice, in 2004 and 2005.
