What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation in sustainable product development, with opportunities for growth and collaboration in a dynamic team environment.

I am a dedicated product developer with a strong focus on sustainability and materials research in textiles. My academic journey at Saxion UAS culminated in a graduation assignment where I achieved a remarkable score of 9/10. I have gained valuable experience through various internships, honing my skills in R&D, fiber to fabric development, and production efficiency within garment factories.

My recent role at Movella-Xsens involved enhancing a motion capturing system, where I collaborated with a multidisciplinary team to improve user experience and product performance. I conducted thorough research on materials and gathered customer feedback to ensure our designs met user requirements. Additionally, my graduation assignment at Van Winkel Fashion BV allowed me to analyze production efficiency, leading to actionable recommendations that improved operational efficiency by 48% without any investment.
