Presentation

Currently I am head of the research group Ethics & Technology at Saxion University of Applied Sciences, Deventer/Enschede (in Dutch: Lector Ethiek & Technologie).

In 2012 I defended my PhD thesis "The design of our own lives: Technical mediation and subjectivation after Foucault" (University of Twente).

In 2005-2006 I studied Philosophy in Paris with the support of a grant from the French government.

In 2004 I completed a Master in Philosophy of Science, Technology and Society at the University of Twente, Netherlands, including a two-year program in mechanical engineering and courses on the history of design.
