I completed my PhD thesis, Strategies to Hunt for New Physics with Strange Beauty Mesons, at Nikhef, the national institute for subatomic physics in the Netherlands, in 2014.

I also performed the research component of my theoretical physics Master degree (from Utrecht University) at Nikhef. My thesis was on Supersymmetric Single Top Production with a Continuous R Symmetry, which I defended on the 15th of October 2009.
