Biography
- PhD researcher in the field of digital finance who specializes in explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) focusing on making AI systems more explainable in (high-stakes) financial applications. Through my research combination of AI and finance, I try to create valuable insights from complex data that would support better decision-making in the financial industry. I am particularly interested in client-focused financial services and helping financial professionals deliver transparent and trustworthy services in an industry that is getting increasingly more AI-driven by the day.
