Hi, nice to meet you. I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science, and my research
is about keeping shared state consistent in both concurrent and distributed
data systems. I enjoy combining theoretical computer science, mathematics, databases and
systems programming.
I am a member of the Software Languages Lab of the Vrije
Universiteit Brussel, where I am advised by Bas
Ketsman. In the context of my PhD I did a 4-month research visit
at UC Berkeley, where I worked together
with Joe Hellerstein.
Before my PhD, I completed a 7-month internship at IBM's Research Lab in
Zürich under the guidance of Peter Staar.
