Biography
I am an Associate Professor of Entrepreneurship and serve as the Academic Director of the International Management/CEMS MSc program at the Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University (RSM).
I earned my PhD from Jönköping International Business School in Sweden and spent a semester as a visiting PhD student at the Carlson School of Management, University of Minnesota.
My research focuses on owner-managed firms, particularly new ventures and family businesses. I study how owners’ preferences, motivations, and experiences shape firm strategies and outcomes.
At RSM, I teach Entrepreneurship and Family Business across a range of programs, including pre-experience courses (BSc and MSc), post-experience education (MBA and GEMBA), and PhD-level seminars.
