I am a computational social scientist with an interest in behavioural sociology, network analysis and cooperation dilemmas.
I started my academic career with a BSc in Sociology at the Interuniversity Center for Social Science Theory and Methodology (ICS) at Utrecht University, after which I attended the two-year Research Master in Sociology and Social Research at the ICS. I continued to explore cooperation dilemmas in CPRs during my PhD at Nuffield College, University of Oxford, for which I received an Advanced Quantitative Methods funding award by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC).
Highlights of my PhD in Oxford include traveling the world to attend conferences and being awarded a pre-doctoral Fellowship from CESS Nuffield- FLAME University to stay for a month in Pune, India, to do research and conduct experiments at FLAME University.
After completing my PhD at Oxford I worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Erasmus University Rotterdam on research on amongst others cooperatives. Currently I am a researcher at the socio-economic department of Statistics Netherlands (CBS) and a Research Associate at Vrije Universiteit, working on research concerning (social) networks, embeddedness and prosocial behaviour.
