The Hague, South Holland, Netherlands
Physicist with a PhD in applied geophysics, specialising in signal processing, acoustic systems, and wave-based modelling. Experienced in analysing complex systems, developing algorithms, and evaluating technical approaches in both industry and defence contexts. My work includes signal processing and wave-based imaging, as well as the modelling and optimisation of autonomous decision-making systems for real-world applications. I am particularly interested in understanding how technical solutions perform in practice, including their assumptions, limitations, and trade-offs. This includes comparing alternative approaches and assessing their robustness in complex environments. In addition, I have experience leading technical work packages and coordinating multidisciplinary projects, contributing to the translation of analytical models into operational solutions. Strong analytical mindset with experience across multiple domains, including seismic imaging and underwater acoustics.
