About Me
I am currently a PhD student, working on numerical simulation of electrostatically charged spray droplets for use in cooling applications. I completed my BSc (2013) and MSc (2016) degrees at the University of Twente, graduating with a thesis on the wake of a flapping wing. In between degrees I spent a year and a half with Solar Team Twente, working on the aerodynamics of the 2013 car.
