Teaching
I am a Lecturer in Artificial Intelligence at the University of Groningen, teaching a broad range of subjects including Reinforcement Learning, Foundations of AI, and Programming. My primary contributions to the curriculum include establishing the bachelor's theoretical RL course, redesigning the RL Practical into a research-oriented module, and co-developing the Python-based Object-Oriented Programming course. I also deliver lectures across the bachelor's and master's programs on topics such as Deep RL and Responsible AI.
