I am an economist in the monetary policy department at De Nederlandsche Bank (the Dutch central bank, DNB). In my research I study central bank digital currency, banks and the functioning of the European Monetary Union.

Prior to DNB, I worked at the European Central Bank on the financial stability implications of a digital euro. I hold a PhD and an MPhil in Economics from the University of Amsterdam and the Tinbergen Institute.
