About Me
Hi! I'm a multidisciplinary developer and designer with a background that bridges technology, psychology, and user experience. I hold a Master's degree in Human-Technology Interaction from TU Eindhoven, and have a strong foundation in ICT & Technology, with experience in areas ranging from embedded systems and game design to affective computing and UX research.

Experience & Current Focus
Over the years, I've worked on projects involving smart sensing, data-driven motivation, mobile interaction, and learning platforms—always with a user-centered mindset. My academic and professional journey has taken me from programming heart rate–based stress detectors to developing interactive dashboards in Power BI, and from building learning tools with React to researching tactile feedback perception.
Current Position: Currently, I work as a technical consultant for the Dutch WBSO (R&D tax credit) program. In this role, I support tech companies by reviewing their innovation projects, translating complex development efforts into structured documentation, and facilitating productive client sessions. It has sharpened my ability to connect technical depth with strategic communication—skills I also bring into my own design and development work.
My main side project is FocusVerse: a customizable digital focus environment that blends ambient design, adaptive task planning, music, and sound integration to support deep work and study. The platform is inspired by principles from motivation psychology, interaction design, and my own experience designing tools that promote digital wellbeing.
