East Flanders, Belgium

Hard-working and fast-learning individual with a strong interest in technology. After completing a master’s degree in Business Economics, I pursued additional courses in Engineering to broaden my perspective. Along the way, I developed a growing passion for data science and AI, a passion that has since become the central focus of my academic and professional development. I am eager to contribute to data-driven roles in data science, AI, automation, and technology, with a strong interest in innovative digital projects that create real impact.
