Her research focuses on the education and labor market participation of people with visual impairments. Using large-scale administrative data from Statistics Netherlands and advanced quantitative methods, through her studies we gain insights into the current prospects of people with VI on the labor market, how to predict labor market inactivity using machine learning, and what policies have what effect on labor market participation of people with VI.
