Starting from June 2023, I work as an assistant professor within the Engineering Fluid Dynamics group. My main research interests are in:

  • Aeroacoustics
  • Experimental aeroacoustics
  • Acoustic beamforming
  • Measurement techniques in low-speed wind tunnel testing
  • Noise reduction of aerodynamic noise in engineering applications such as, aviation, automotive, wind energy and HVAS systems. 

In 2016, I obtained my MSc. degree in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Twente with the Fluid Dynamics specialization. During my studies, I completed my internship at the GE Global Research Center in Munich, where I focused on investigating wind turbine noise. Thereafter, I started my thesis assignment in the EFD group on "Acoustic source localization in drone applications".

Following the completion of my MSc. degree, I remained within the EFD group to contibute to the development and establishment of the (experimental) aeroacoustic research activities. Starting from 2018, I pursued a Ph.D. thesis in the EFD group. This Ph.D. research was part of the Silent Approach project which was a collaboration between: the University of Twente, Embraer, the Dutch Aerospace Center (NLR), and the German-Dutch Wind Tunnels (DNW). I succesfully defende my Ph.D. thesis entitled: "Aeroacoustic Measurements of Airframe Components: in an open-jet, a hard-wall and a hybrid wind tunnel test section" in 2022. Between August 2022 and June 2023, I continued working as a postdoctoral researcher in the EFD group after which I continued as an assistant professor.
