I am a postdoc at Leiden University, funded by an NWO VENI grant. My research area is Algebraic Geometry.
Before this, I was a postdoc at the University of Amsterdam with Mingmin Shen.
I did my PhD at the University of Bonn with Daniel Huybrechts.
I did my BSc and MSc Mathematics at the University of Amsterdam.
