Mechanical Engineer
As a young engineering student, I was missing an extreme challenge associated with my studies. A project that involved technology, teamwork and innovation would meet this challenge. As an industrial engineering student, I soon came across the Solar Team. It soon became clear to me that this was a 'once in a lifetime' project.
Working on a solar car for 16 months, followed by a race abroad. You could call it a boyhood dream come true. With of course the ultimate goal, WINNING!
