👋 Hello

I am an AI practitioner. I don’t believe in the filter bubble, I don’t think personalized ads are the death of democracy, and in the current polarized public debate around AI which is largely dominated by non-technical criticists, I feel computer scientists should speak up, get involved, and be heard.

I’m leading the Data Science Chapter at randstad, the global leader in the HR services industry. I used to lead the AI team at the FD Mediagroep, where we built the award winning BNR SMART Radio, and designed a news recommender for Het FD. I obtained my PhD in Information Retrieval at ILPS (University of Amsterdam) under supervision of prof. dr. Maarten de Rijke in 2017. Going further back, I used to work in the media.
