About

I am from Belgium and I received my Bachelor’s, Master’s and PhD’s from the University of Liege (Belgium). My PhD focused on the structural optimization of flexible components within a multibody dynamics approach. In November 2015, I joined the research group of Professor James K. Guest as a postdoctoral fellow. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing the guitar and having good time with my friends.
