About Me

Me Walking Outside of a University

I'm an AI Engineer and Data Scientist, originally from The Netherlands. I earned my Master's in Data Science at Minnesota State University, Mankato, where I graduated top of my class. Previously, I completed my Bachelor's in ICT at HZ University of Applied Sciences in The Netherlands, with an Erasmus+ minor in Computer Science in Austria. My master's thesis focused on real-time snow detection using deep learning to enhance pedestrian safety. Currently, I'm seeking research-focused positions in computer vision and AI, aiming to contribute to cutting-edge developments as a Research Scientist.

At a Presentation

My expertise lies in AI, computer vision, and generative models, with a strong research interest in autonomous AI and real-world applications of deep learning.

My research has been published at conferences, such as MWAIS, AIMLA, and CADSCOM, and my work explores innovative applications of AI, particularly in enhancing safety and automation. I am passionate about the intersection of deep learning and real-time systems.
