Future
I have thoroughly enjoyed exploring design-research at TU Eindhoven. For now, I hope to continue growing and learning in the same field. As a design researcher, I bring a unique blend of critical inquiry, hands-on experimentation, and interdisciplinary thinking. So far, my work has addressed themes of ecological sensitivity, interspecies communication, and sustainable systems, grounded in rigorous research and iterative design processes. Currently, I am looking for opportunities that help me contribute further in this domain. In the near future, I hope to deepen my knowledge in more-than-human design/biodesign by pursuing a PhD. Hopefully, this path will allow me to contribute to ongoing academic debates while expanding my vision as a designer.
Alternatively, I am also open to pursuing an EngD to bridge academic research in this field to industry driven innovation. Additionally, with my tutoring experience at the university, I am also eager to look for opportunities in teaching roles as biodesign lab assistant or a teacher.
While staying in academia is my primary choice, I am currently also exploring research roles in the sustainable material innovation industry and the food industry, where I can also apply the skills learnt as a design researcher. I plan to stay in the Netherlands for the foreseeable future, continuing to contribute to its vibrant design and research landscape.
