Since birth citizen of Eindhoven. Besides travelling to foreign countries, getting energy out of connecting with new people all around the world, hearing their part of the story. Always been interested in more than only daily life struggles, being curious about the world we are living in. Also loves to try out different sports, have tried archery, atletics, rowing and soccer so far. Now running and swimming is my thing. Trying different things to grow as a person and broaden my knowledge, trying to tackle the problems of our time like the transition to renewable energy.

That made me choose an education degree in Mechanical Engineering on the TU/e, so far finished my Bachelor Degree and doing a Masters in Energy Technology. During my free time I am reading non-fictional books, like biographies of Einstein (by Walter Isaacson) and Elon Musk (by Ashlee Vance), and all books of Yuval Noah Harari.

Oh, and I love to cook! Risotto's with tasty mushrooms in white wine and lots of cheese. Try saying no to that.
