Physician (MD), specialist in public health (M+G and MPH) and institutional educator of future public health doctors and master public health trainees at the Netherlands School of Public and Occupational Health.

My expertise is in infectious disease control, epidemiology (MSc), community medicine, guidelines and policy making. I worked in general practices, at several municipal public health services, and at national level with NHG, RIVM and GGD GHOR Nederland. These experiences shaped my passion for population health, prevention, and strengthening public health systems and professionals.
