| Personal background |
|---|
I was born in Tegelen, The Netherlands on 8th August 1978. After living one year in Blerick, my parents moved and took me to Panningen, where I grew up.
I started my study Polymer Chemistry in 1996 in Blerick, at the Fontys Hogescholen Venlo. I did my final thesis at the Eindhoven University of Technology, at the Laboratory of Polymer Chemistry and Coatings Technology. I assisted a PhD student with his work on the Surface Modification of Coatings using Fluorinated Surfactants. I received my B.Sc. degree on 23th February 2001. After this I continued my work for the Coatings Laboratory for one year.
Currently I'm an employee at the Eindhoven University of Technology, at the Departement of Inorganic Chemistry and Catalysis. I'm a Technical Researsh assistant for the Physical Chemistry of Surfaces in Catalysis group, and also webmaster of the departement.
In my free time I like to play squash, play some dumb games on my PC and watch action and horror movies on TV. And of course I like to drink beer in the weekends! Sometimes I drink enough to actually see some ET's! #) |
| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
I'm gonna be short on this one. I believe in extraterrestrial life, and that's why i run SETI@home.
It feels good to be able to do my part in the search for ET's, and this too is a reason for me to run SETI@home.
Of course, I also run SETI@home because some of my friends do, if they didn't tell me about it, I would have never started. And I have a faster PC, so I can beat them in speed. My good new Athlon XP 1600 does a workunit in less than 4 hours. At work it's around 10 hours/unit. |
