Welcome!
As a geographer and geoecologist, I am interested in understanding long-term environmental and climatic changes, with a focus on the natural and human dimensions of changing wildfire regimes.
I am a postdoctoral researcher at Utrecht University, Netherlands, and a guest researcher at the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research, Germany. Find more about my research profile here.
This website represents a personal portfolio, compiling my publications, awards and funding, outreach, a gallery, as well as news and contact details right below!

December 5, 2025: Visit at University of Göttingen
For the past two days I visited Elisabeth Dietze's Landscape Fire Lab at the Department of Physical Geography, University of Göttingen, Germany. Together with her motivated students we set up and tested a preparation and evaluation routine for sedimentary charcoal particles. Looking forward to the results!

October 31, 2025: Call for Abstracts - BeNeLux Geography
Bringing long-term perspectives on interactions between humans and the environment to the inaugural BeNeLux Geography Conference!
The abstract submission is now open for our session "Learning from the past: Landscape dynamics and relationships to human activity throughout the Holocene" (see image below).
Join us in Leuven, Belgium next April and connect with researchers from the varied and diverse fields of geography! More information here!
