About

I graduated from Maastricht University as a medical doctor in August 2011. I started my working career as a resident in a General Surgery department before switching to a PhD position in Surgery. I obtained my PhD on March 29th 2019. Parallel to the last years of my PhD trajectory I had several residency jobs in Surgery. In January 2020, I changed my course and started my specialist training in Radiology (Interventional Radiology and Breast Radiology). I finished my residency in December 2025. In January 2026, I will start my fellowship in Interventional Radiology. My goal is to improve my knowledge and practical skills, and make my dream come true! Specialties: Strong team player with very good communication skills.
