Thanks for stopping by!
I am a PhD candidate in the Stochastic Operations Research (SOR) group and the Center for Healthcare Operations Improvement and Research (CHOIR) at the University of Twente. My research focuses on developing data-driven mathematical models to improve pandemic preparedness and strengthen healthcare systems.
I contribute to both the European RAPIDE EU project and a national ZonMw project, where I develop mathematical models, tools, and insights for real-world healthcare applications. With a background in theoretical mathematics, I bring a rigorous modeling approach to complex challenges in healthcare.
Driven by a strong interest in both resilient healthcare systems and mathematics, I am passionate about applying mathematical methods to problems that have tangible impact. Look here for more information on my PhD project.
