As a researcher, I am particularly interested in the evaluation of (digital) communication. As part of my PhD research, I conducted a number of large-scale user studies to investigate the merits and drawbacks of employing various think-aloud variants for usability testing. For the past few years I have been working, in collaboration with Dr Olga Damman (VUMC), on an NWO project entitled You are at risk: how health risk information can be made more meaningful for consumers. Our study involved a number of qualitative user studies (think aloud, eye-tracking) and quantitative experiments to discover how lay people understand and interpret health risk information in online health risk tests.

As a lecturer (BKO-qualified), I strongly believe in combining theory and practice in my courses. I frequently collaborate with language professionals, translation agencies and usability companies to ensure that my teaching remains theoretically grounded and practically relevant.
