Close Up
  • What I Do

    I work in research projects on how the make our economy more sustainable.

  • Why Engineering?

    Because I was fascinated by a TV series for children explaining how everything works, from physical phenomena to balloon production.

  • Proud Moments

    Proudest moments are the receptions PhDs (incl. my own) and everytime we get a new research project.

  • Dreams and Goals

    My dream is that all students (in my field) had a base lecture on sustainability issues and try to consider this in their future career. Only together, we can make the world a better place.

  • Hobbies

    Good conversations, cooking, hiking, yoga and ballroom dance are the activities where I recreate the most.

Volunteer Opportunities
  • I am willing to be contacted by educators for possible speaking engagements in schools or in after school programs or summer camps.
  • I am willing to host a field trip to my place of employment.
  • I am willing to be contacted about potential job shadowing by interested students.
  • I am willing to be interviewed by interested students via email.
