About

I am a passionate researcher in the field of sustainability and information systems. My main research interests and publications are in the digitalization of circular economies. Currently, I am part of Prof. Karel Van Acker's Sustainability Assessments of Materials and Circular Economy group at KU Leuven. My Ph.D. thesis focuses on the design of digital solutions to benefit circular economies. In my doctorate, I have guided over ten master’s thesis students and lectured various classes. I have led research, digitalization, and consulting projects. I have been a reviewer for the Journal of Circular Economy, Procedia CIRP, the European Conference on Information Systems (ECIS), and Resources, Conservation and Recycling. I am passionate about teaching, research communication, like science slams, and research exploitation by giving policy briefings and industry workshops.
