At the end of 2013 i started working as a rehabilitation physician and became a staff member at the adult in- and outpatient clinic of neurorehabilitation of Rijndam rehabilitation Centre in Rotterdam (location Westersingel), in which i continue to work at this moment.

In November 2018 I completed my thesis on Long-term Impact of Moderate to Severe Traumatic Brain Injury. 
In 2019 I became a member of the scientific staff of the Erasmus MC department of rehabilitation medicine/Rijndam. In which it is an important goal to form a bridge between the scientific staff and clinical patient care and to participate in clinical research projects.
