I am an economist in the monetary policy department at De Nederlandsche Bank (the Dutch central bank), and a PhD candidate in the Finance Group of the University of Amsterdam and the Tinbergen Institute. In my research I study central bank digital currency, banking, and the European Monetary Union.

Prior to that, I worked as an analyst at the European Central Bank on the financial stability implications of a digital euro.
