Welcome

I am a behavioral scientist working at the Maastricht University School of Business and Economics. I am driven by the curiosity to find out what people (cognitively) do, far beyond what they think they do. 

I lead a high-impact, international, industry-oriented effort to quantify the social impact a property can have on its users. We produce property-level reports aimed at learning, improving, and marketing social efforts within the ESG domain. Specifically, we provide a uniform social framework, benchmark performance to the market and sector, and provide actionable insights that facilitates the enhancement of social performance. 

My research varies across multiple topics, with the same recurring theme: investigating the inaccuracy of human judgment, factors that unconsciously influence resulting decisions, and the unawareness of that influence. I explore the behavioral side of many real-life, relevant, economic and societal problems. In the domain of climate resilience in the housing market, social impact (ESG), and work-from-home, I contrast reported or intended with actual behavior using a data-driven exploration of behavior.
