I am a human-computer interaction (HCI) researcher with a background in Cognitive Science. I am a tenure-track researcher at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI), within the Distributed & Interactive Systems (DIS) group. I am also a board member (co-treasurer) for CHI Nederland (CHI NL).
I'm currently leading research efforts within the Affective Interactive Systems group . Previously, I did my Postdoc at the HCI Oldenburg lab, part of the Media Informatics and Multimedia Systems group at the University of Oldenburg / OFFIS (Germany). I received my PhD in Computer Science from the University of Amsterdam (Netherlands), working at the Information and Language Processing Systems (ILPS) group.
My research falls at the intersection of HCI, Affective Computing, XR, and AI. Specifically, I focus on novel ground truth label acquisition techniques for emotion recognition, visualization of user affective states across environments (mobile, wearables, XR), and developing bio-responsive interactive prototypes and interaction techniques.
