Growing up in an automotive household, I was surrounded by cars and technology from an early age. This passion led me to pursue a degree in Automotive Engineering at Hogeschool Rotterdam, where I specialized in vehicle dynamics. Throughout my studies, I became fascinated by how engineering principles translate into real-world performance, particularly in high-speed environments like motorsport.

My interest in both innovation and racing brought me to Forze Hydrogen Racing, where we design and develop the race car of the future. I have always enjoyed pushing the limits of both machines and people, striving for continuous improvement. This drive naturally led me to the role of race engineer, where I get to combine my technical expertise with strategic decision-making to optimize performance on and off the track.

As a race engineer, I act as the key link between the driver and the rest of the team. I am responsible for developing race strategies, analysing performance data, and leading in-house testing. By translating data into actionable insights, I help ensure that both car and driver perform at their best during race weekends.
