  • Profile

    I am a postdoctoral researcher and lecturer interested in how we can use technology and/or AI to encourage adolescents/young adults to adopt a more sustainable lifestyle. Furthermore, I am interested in studying the effects of social media influencers and using innovative research methodologies. I am proficient in conducting field experiments, surveys and content analyses, frequentist as well as Bayesian analyses, and using both direct and indirect measures. I enjoy teaching, especially individual supervision and statistical and practical courses. Supervising students and helping them grow into good researchers gives me positive energy.
