I was born in Rotterdam, the Netherlands in 1968. I then lived for 18 years in the western parts of the Netherlands in the cities of Rotterdam and Ridderkerk. At the start of my university study I moved to Eindhoven and in 1992 I received my master's degree in electrical engineering from Eindhoven Technical University. Since 1990 I have been living in Delft, Seattle (WA, USA), Amersfoort and most recently I moved to Driebergen.
