Working for the European Space Agency (ESA) in the Space Environment and Effects section at the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC). I have interests in space physics, exploration, instrumentation, and space environments and their effects on technology and astronauts. I support ESA missions specifying the space environment they will encounter. I am the Project Scientist for the European Radiation Sensor Array to fly on lunar Gateway and support the payload development. I am the Chair of the European Space Weather Week Programme Committee for 2024 and 2025. Additionally I define and oversee R&D activities for space environment, heliophysics and space weather with a key role in supporting ESA's Space Safety Programme (S2P). My thesis topic was in solar energetic particle events - radiation storms brought on by explosive phenomena induced by magnetic reconnection in the solar corona.
