Enschede Area, Netherlands

I have independently done research related to passivity- and energy-based control of robotic systems and variable impedance actuation within the European H2020 SoftPro project. I have written six scientific publications in this time, was involved in the writing of a project’s pre-proposal, and I have peer-reviewed many high-level conference and journal.

Rotterdam Area, Netherlands

I have researched and developed a concept of an innovative robotic system in the field of petrochemical catalyst handling. Responsibilities included research, systems engineering, and conceptual design and validation.

Enschede Area, Netherlands

I have supported the work of a PhD candidate within a large European FP7-project (Design Support and Tooling for Embedded Control Software) by modeling a small robotic system and documenting simulation results, to bridge the gap between my MSc and PhD.

I was a freelance webdesigner and was responsible for the development and maintenance of the websites, for instance for the local public library.

Adelaide, Australia

I have worked on the research and development of a vibration cancellation system using synthetic shunt impedances and electromagnetic transducers.

Doctor Of Philosophy (Ph.D.), Robotics

I have developed models to easily design a compliant robotic arm with multiple degrees of freedom, and developed (r)evolutionary compliant.

Master’S Degree, Mechatronics (Msc)

During my thesis project, I designed a novel electromechanical rotational variable stiffness actuator which has the ability, unlike.

Bachelor’S Degree, Electrical Engineering (Bsc)

Minor in Biomedical Engineering (anatomy and physiology of the human body, cellular theory, neurophysiology).
