When I worked as a Non-Destructive Researcher (NDT) at Fokker Aircraft BV, I got the opportunity to use X-ray aircraft components. For this it was necessary to obtain a diploma in radiation hygiene level 5. After Fokker, I enjoyed working for the radiation protection service of the Erasmus University and successfully completed the radiation hygiene training level 4. Before I started working at RadiatCo, I mainly worked for TUV and TNO in the medical sector. My main duties in the medical sector consisted of performing radiation safety inspections, acceptance and status tests and constancy tests of large X-ray installations such as bucky stands, mammography, CTs (computer tomography), continuous screening (such as angiography) and all other types of devices.

The inspections were carried out in hospitals, medical clinics, prisons, airports, all GGDs in the Netherlands, veterinary practices, zoos, dental practices.

For RadiatCo I have been seconded to different locations such as EPZ Borsele, Covra and Thermphos (VcB). I also regularly work as an LSA expert for NORM in the offshore / oil and gas industry, and for the inspection of radioactive sources on dredgers abroad.

The above are just a few examples of the activities I carry out for RadiatCo B.V.

Since March 2018 my career in the radiation world started at RadiatCo. The previous four years I worked as a PhD candidate at the WUR in Wageningen. The research I conducted there focused on the intestinal flora of fish and was therefore mostly microbiological in nature. During this work I gained a lot of research and laboratory experience. The courses I have completed are HBO Environmental Sciences at the HAS in ‘s-Hertogenbosch. Environmental science is a very broad program aimed at solving and guiding environmental issues in the broadest sense of the word. After studying Environmental Science, I went to the WUR in Wageningen to specialize by means of the Masters course “Aquaculture and Marine Resource Management”.

At the beginning of 2019 I hope to obtain my training as a radiation expert level 3 and until then to gain a lot of experience in all kinds of projects.
