What have I done so far ...

I graduated on The COOPerator. In this project I was one of the implementors, mainly responsible for development and implementation of the human-computer interface.

My master thesis, Co-writing, Look and Feel!, was completely written for the World Wide Web from scratch. It deals with human-computer interface design and implementation for The COOPerator, a co-writing tool.

Also, I was a fellow worker at the Science Shop of Tilburg University for four years, mainly responsible for automation and user-support. Besides, I was an active member of the study group on national information exchange for which I originally designed, built and edited the Science Shop Gopher service (alas, in Dutch only).

My main research interests include:

• Human-computer Interfaces
• Object-oriented development and object-oriented programming languages
• Hypertext and Hypermedia
• Computer Supported Cooperative Work

What am I doing now

Currently, I am working for RAET IT-Services in Nieuwegein, The Netherlands where I hope to grow as a senior software engineer.
