Biography

King's gave me an incredible experience. I have discovered myself as a person and as a professional. King's world-class teaching and research gave me the motivation and skills to deliver the same to my own students in the Netherlands. In addition, the value of good education, dialogue and diversity taught that being successful depends not only on how smart you are, but also on 'how wide your eyes are open'. Learning from each other and getting knowledge from debates and dialogues creates the total package for a good start in reaching your personal and professional goals in life. And last but not least, I got the best friendships for a lifetime. I am thankful to everyone who admitted me to the MA course in 2016. Thank you so much.

I am a lecturer in International and European law for the LLB program in The Hague. Beside that, I am writing policy papers in order to improve the quality of the LLB program. Since a couple of years, I am the head of the External Relations bureau of the same program
