I am a first-year Computational Science graduate student at the University of Amsterdam and the Free University of Amsterdam. I intend to concentrate mostly on the use of computational techniques in the financial markets during my studies. In addition, I hope to gain a rich understanding of stochastic calculus and high performance computing. Since this is a two-year program, my anticipated graduation year is 2026.

Next to my studies, I work part-time as a data scientist for Ipsos I&O Netherlands. Previously, I worked full-time as a data scientist. At Ipsos I&O, I am primarily responsible for the development of new data science methods and the optimization of in-house data science methods. I am one of few pollsters responsible for polling activities at Ipsos I&O. Next to co-organizing the polls, I investigate possible improvements to current modelling strategies.

Prior, I studied psychology with a concentration in psychological methodology and data science at Tilburg University. For my minor, I succesfully completed hand-picked courses on neural networks, mathematics, programming and behavioral economics. I graduated Cum Laude with a GPA of 8.23 (Top >5%) and 186 out of 180 ECTS.
