I completed my higher education at the Hogeschool van Arnhem en Nijmegen, specifically at the University of Applied Sciences in Nijmegen. I started attending the universally praised Bioinformatics course in 2011 and received my Bachelor's degree in 2016.
Over the course of my attendance at the HAN I accomplished a number of feats in addition to the normal coursework, ending my Bachelor's with a 9.2 for the final internship project.
I still keep close contact with the HAN, as a member of its alumni association and as a guest lecturer on Artificial Intelligence. References for any of the above will be provided upon request.
Spoke at several gatherings dedicated to the Bioinformatics course, including a symposium and its second Lustrum
Acted as a student assistant over the course of 4 continuous years, in both didactic and non-didactic roles
Guided a C & CUDA course block on two separate occasions, praised by students and teachers alike
Independently set up, guided and graded a course block on practical version control with Git and GitHub
Prepared and guided an interactive teacher-oriented event for the HAN Energizer day on AI and ML advances
Acted as a representative in the Class Representatives initiative, focusing on improving accessibility to digital resources
I maintain close ties with the HAN through my membership in its alumni association and my role as a guest lecturer on Artificial Intelligence. This ongoing relationship allows me to give back to the institution that shaped my career while staying current with the latest developments in bioinformatics education.
