I am a postdoctoral researcher affiliated to the Tilburg Institute for Law, Technology and Society (TILT) at Tilburg University. I have a background in law and my fields of expertise and interest include business law, law and technology, the regulation of network industries and legal aspects of data and AI governance under EU Law. 
My postdoctoral research is part of the NWO sponsored 'MEGAMIND' project (Measuring, Gathering, Mining and Integrating Data for Self-management in the Edge of the Electricity System). For this project, I investigate legal and ethical aspects necessary to develop a governance framework for data and AI models used in the (Dutch) electricity sector, to ensure that core values such as energy justice, privacy, fairness, accessibility, transparency and responsibility, are safeguarded.
For my PhD research (2018-2022), I investigated the regulatory challenges brought by data-driven innovation and the complexities of regulating data sharing in the context of the digitalized utilities (drinking water and electricity) under EU and Dutch law. My PhD research was part of ‘LONGA VIA’, a research project sponsored by NWO and five operators of critical infrastructures in the Netherlands: Alliander, Vitens, Port of Rotterdam, ProRail and Rijkswaterstaat.

My teaching activities include:

• Teaching on EU legislation and policy on data governance (Data Governance Act, Data Act, Open Data & PSI Directive, common European data spaces) for the course Innovation & Regulation of the joint Data Science Bachelor program. 
• Teaching on legal frameworks for access to data in the energy sector for Executive Programs (Energy Law and Law & Technology) and for the course 'Regulation and governance of a just energy transition'  of the Topklas program (Bachelor in Law).
• Supervision of final essays of the Global Law Bachelor program.
