I obtained my Bachelor’s degree at the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) in 2022. During my Bachelor thesis in the group of Prof. Anja Palmans, I investigated a phenomenon called triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion in single-chain polymeric nanoparticles, using photosensitive molecules called chromophores. During my Master's studies at the TU/e, I worked in the group of Prof. Albert Schenning under the supervision of Prof. Michael Debije on the development of highly porous stimuli-responsive liquid crystal networks. I am currently working on my Master thesis, where I aim to get supramolecular polymers from dilute solutions into bulk materials by embedding these polymers in a macromolecular matrix.
