About me

“I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.” – Albert Einstein

The more life experience I get, the more I feel like the quote above fits my life. This website has once been created for the Utrecht University to exhibit my motivation for following the Master Business Informatics study. Later it became a place to drop updates about my career and thoughts. Topics that sparkle my interest:

Search Technologies

  • Deep analysis of search processes and user interactions
  • Innovative approaches to indexing diverse data types
  • Advanced data structuring techniques (such as leveraging Google’s featured snippets)
  • Creative strategies for data reuse and optimization

Conversational Technologies

  • Exploring the relationship between search and chatbot technologies
  • Voice interface innovations
  • User experience design in conversational interfaces
  • Potential of Large Language Models (LLMs)

Product Management

  • Developing comprehensive understanding of organizational ecosystems
  • Crafting compelling product visions and strategic roadmaps
  • Implementing goal-setting methodologies that bridge bottom-up and top-down approaches
  • Building high-performance teams through effective leadership
  • Balancing continuous learning with strategic execution

DIY: Doing Things Yourself

  • Building innovative solutions that remove friction from everyday processes
  • Leveraging (ai) technology to create impactful, user-centric products
  • Exploring rapid prototyping and iterative development
  • Bridging technological possibilities with practical solutions
