About

My career at the University of Twente began in 2021, when I joined the bachelor program Biomedical Engineering. Since then, I have been tremendously motivated by my professors and peers both educationally as well as in extracurricular involvement. Research and imaging and diagnostics interest me, as well as a drive to improve quality of life of others. Besides my academic involvement, I was active as a board member of the Workinggroup on Development Technologies from 2022 to 2026. During these years I have developed communicational, management and responsibility carrying skills. I expect to graduate from my Masters in 2026. Until then, I plan to continue my studies in the Biomedical field at Utwente.
