I am a PhD Candidate at the Management Department at Tilburg University. In my research I try to uncover how top managers behave when being faced with financial distress. The first major theme is trying to understand their decision-making through how reference points affect their risk-taking. A second theme focuses on their communication, examining how they verbally describe to external analysts how well their organization is doing. In my research I use a large variety of techniques, ranging from utilizing Natural Language Processing to analyze audio and textual data, to using survival models to examine failure rates. Furthermore, I am a strong believer in the Open Science movement and try to apply these principles in my own research.
My supervisor are Prof. Dr. Tal Simons and Prof. Dr. Zilin He.
