I graduated from TU Delft, majoring in technical mathematics (BSc, MSc) and civil engineering (BSc). Immediately after my studies, I spent four years doing research in the field of river hydraulics at Delft University of Technology, focusing on numerical modelling of the large-scale and long-term morphodynamic development of lowland rivers such as the Rhine.
What I like about working as a patent attorney is the
variety and the opportunity to follow developments in different fields. Due to my broad background, I generally make my way around both the more practical inventions and more abstract topics fairly easily.
