About

Fascinated by sciences and convinced of the importance of sciences to advance knowledge and insight in crucial processes, I studied Aerospace Engineering at Delft University of Technology. I did in depth research for my master thesis on online prognostics for composite structures, a key enabler to condition-based maintenance. I became aware of the potential of machine learning and its impact on how we approach innovative technology. With an advanced master in artificial intelligence at the KU Leuven, I immersed myself deeper into AI, an area with countless applications in industry. I am thrilled to apply the acquired competences on condition monitoring projects as a Technology Engineer Smart Systems & Data Intelligence at Atlas Copco.
