Hey there :wave: I’m a Belgian student living in Stockholm, Sweden. I hold bachelor in computer science from KU Leuven and am now finishing my master’s in Human-Computer Interaction at the Royal Institute of Technology.

I’ve always been fascinated by tech and what we can do with it. But I started being concerned about the negative societal impacts of incumbent platforms when witnessing how their “extractive” business models and addictiveness changed human relationships and behavior around me - mostly for the worse. Humane Tech has been a hopeful platform to reverse that trend.

I’m trying to build my career so I can learn how to improve tech in a humane way. I have skills in development, UX design & business. I’m currently using & honing these in plenty of projects and by working at Columbia Road, a Nordic e-commerce consultancy with nice people that care about users.
