"I’m using data
to support business
​decisions
”
“I’m currently working on a graduation project where I use data science and geo-experiments to test the effectiveness of online marketing. What would be the effect of continuing a certain marketing campaign in one region and stopping it in another? There’s a certain logic puzzle aspect in data science that I very much enjoy, especially on the interface between technology and business development.
Because of the bachelor’s degree program I did, I did a pre-master program to get my programming, statistics and math up to par. The JADS Campus in Den Bosch is great and very small. After I graduate, I’d like to set up my own venture together with a partner since I like initiating and scaling up things. “
