I'm first and foremost a lover of learning. Lately, I've found that my favourite learning occurs outside of the classroom and the lab. It's the learning that comes from paying attention to your interactions, your surroundings, and yourself. I started out in Neuroscience because I loved that it united so many disciplines and perspectives with the goal of unravelling the mysteries of the brain. Neurasmus was the perfect opportunity to learn Neuroscience and also to learn so much about myself, others, and integrating into new environments. It was challenging but also one of the most formative and rewarding endeavours I've ever embarked on.

Where you can find me now: doing my PhD in Computational Neuroscience at the Spinoza Centre for Neuroimaging in Amsterdam. I'm investigating how visual spatial attention alters visual processing using fMRI and computational modeling. When I'm not in the lab, I love bird-watching, being on boats or near water, and spending time in the sun with friends.
