I am a geoscientist working at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel where I develop and apply a toolbox of elemental and isotopic proxies to various Earth science questions. Since the completion of my PhD on impact cratering and asteroid showers in 2011, my research now includes early Solar System evolution, meteorite parent body processes, and global changes throughout Earth history. From 2009 on, I have been involved in the recovery of meteorites from the blue ice fields surrounding the Sør Rondane Mountains of Antarctica. Thanks to the InBev-Baillet Latour Antarctica Fellowship, numerous micrometeorites found concentrated at Antarctic mountain tops in 2012 will keep me and the team busy for many years to come!
