Research profile

I previously worked on theory and algorithms for solving partial differential equations using probability theory, mostly with the goal to beat the curse of dimensionality. Currently, I am looking for research work in the medical field.

Publications

Below you can find my preprints and publications.

Employment

I was a PhD student at Utrecht University with Dr. Ivan Kryven. Before that, I studied applied mathematics and applied physics at Delft University of Technology where I wrote my master’s thesis under Prof. Mark Veraar and Dr. Manuel Gnann.

Teaching

I have been involved as a student assistant in several courses:

Mathematical statistical mechanics, masters course (2023/2024, 2024/2025)
Analysis, first year course (2022/2023, 2023/2024)
Calculus and linear algebra, first year course (2022/2023)
Modelling with ODEs and PDEs, third year course (2022/2023)
Statistics, second year course (2021/2022)
Introduction to numerical analysis (2021/2022)
Introduction to probability and statistics, first year course (2021)

Tools

There are a lot of great digital tools out there to make life easier for you, but you may not know about them! Hence, I list some of the tools I use below. While most of my work as a mathematician still happens with pen and paper, I mostly use (and highly recommend!) the following tools:

PARA method for information management. Link
LaTeX in VSCode with VIM and Copilot (the Github plugin, not the Microsoft chatbot) plugins. For more, see the great blogs by Gilles Castel and Leandro Chiarni.
Git during the writing process. This is particularly useful if you are making big modifications to a paper and may want to go back a version. This can also be combined with Overleaf.
Mathematica for most simple on-paper computations.

Personal

Some hobbies in arbitrary order: Reading (add me on Goodreads), weight-lifting, running/walking/cycling, skiing. I am trying to get into Kitesurfing!
