Personal profile

Research summary

I hold a Master's in Architectural engineering, a PhD in Architecture and Urban planning and five years of experience in the construction industry. I started working as a Research Associate at LISER in October 2023 where I run the HypeRent research project as a PI (FNR funding) and contribute to the work of the Housing Observatory, a twenty-year collaboration with the Luxembourg Housing Ministry. My PhD (FNRS-ULiège, 2017-2020) was about the ontologies and governance of ‘live-work mix’. I spent three months in Amsterdam (AMS Institute) and Stockholm (KTH Royal Institute of Technology) as part of this project. I worked for two years (2021-2023) at the Department of Architecture, KU Leuven on the NeW-BLIV project (Post-Covid Housing Supply in Brussels - supported by innoviris). I kept a teaching assignment for the next year at this institution. In 2022, I also collaborated with TU Delft on the ESPON IRiE project (Interregional Relations in Europe). 

Besides, I am actively involved in the ENHR working group on "Housing and Young People" (https://enhr.net/housing-and-young-people/). I am also part of the editorial team of the Journal of Housing and the Built Environment and the Dutch-speaking journal Ruimte en Maatschappij. Since January 2025, I am also the new Book review editor with the International Journal of Housing Policy. 

My research interests relate to new (shared) housing forms (for young people), hyper-commodified housing products, mixed-use development, institutional frameworks and urban governance.
