I have received my Bachelor’s degree from University College Maastricht (2009, cum laude) and my Research Master’s degree in Philosophy from Utrecht University (2011, cum laude). During my PhD project, I spent a term at the Manchester Centre for Political Theory (2014) and another term at the London School of Economics (2015). I was a visiting researcher at the Faculty of Philosophy of Cambridge University for the autumn term of 2017.
I am the co-author of a Dutch book on the philosophy of the self (title: 'Ik: filosofie van het zelf'), which will be the mandatory reading for the exam of Dutch high-school students (2018-2021). I am also an editor of the Dutch academic philosophy blog Bij Nader Inzien.
