about

i’m a technator at a technasium, a dutch secondary stem program where students learn through real-world projects in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. i teach research and design, guiding students as they work in teams on challenges that grow in complexity, culminating in a comprehensive thesis solving a current, practical problem. what i love most about my work is seeing students transform into future makers curious, confident, and collaborative thinkers who tackle real societal and technical issues with creativity and determination. i also co-create education with a wide variety of tech companies, bringing the professional world into the classroom and giving students a glimpse of what’s possible beyond school. as a woman in tech and leadership, i’m passionate about showing young people especially girls that they can be innovators and changemakers. every day, i get to witness their growth, ambition, and potential, which is incredibly inspiring.
