I am a chemist, graduated from the Vrije Universiteit Brussel, with a specialization in molecular and macro-molecular design. During my career at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel as a PhD researcher, I was coordinating master students courses such as "Introduction to Polymer synthesis" and "Polymer Materials" within the faculty of Science and Engineering. Additionally, I have been actively involved in projects dealing with polymer additives, nanotechnology and multi-functional coating applications. In my spare time, I am involved in Young-KVCV, a Flemish association of young scientists, promoting science and technology to a younger audience. Among his passions for science/technology and food, he also enjoys acrylic painting on canvas.
