Graduated (2010) at the Technical University in Delft with a specialization in the field of Coastal Engineering. After my graduation I worked for 12 years (2010-2021) at the Dutch independent institute for applied research in the field of water and subsurface: Deltares (www.deltares.nl). At Deltares in the role of senior metocean and numerical modelling specialist (Delft3D, SWAN) within the the Harbour, Coastal and Offshore Engineering department. As life took me elsewhere I chose to continue my career self-employed and started SHELF MODELS (2022).(https://www.shelfmodels.com)SHELF MODELS can assist you at every stage of your project from metocean site characterization, numerical model development, simulations and hindcasts, data analyses, tool developments to post-processing of modelling results and/or reporting.For SHELF MODELS the vision is to - based on my experience and expertise - be of service as your temporarily extra work power, to be that extra (flexible) employee you (occasionally) need and assist you in all your offshore and coastal related numerical modelling requirements.
