Expertise
Affordable housing is my passion. I am an assistant professor of Housing Management at the TU Delft Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment, Department of Management in the Built Environment (MBE). My research and teaching activities focus on the management, governance and finance of affordable and sustainable housing.
I worked in social housing for over 30 years. Before joining TU Delft, I worked as a strategy consultant at RIGO Research en Advies in Amsterdam and as a policy consultant and manager at housing associations in the east and north of the Netherlands. In 1989 I completed my 'Social Housing' bachelor's degree at Hogeschool Midden-Brabant in Tilburg. In 2002 I Supplemented this with a master's degree in Organisational Studies at the Open University. Then, in March 2016, I successfully defended my Networks and Fault lines PhD-thesis on The Role of Housing Associations in Neighbourhood Regeneration Governance: a network perspective.
