 HLO education manager at Hogeschool Leiden
During my PhD and post-doct period I supervised many students from both University and Technical University of Applied Sciences (Hogeschool) which I really enjoyed. In 2003 I applied for a position as a teacher medical biology at the Hogeschool Leiden. Teaching people who are really interested in the subject is very rewarding and you're trying to educate the technicians of the future. After a while some management tasks were given to me and this led to a shift from being a teacher to becoming a manager. Since 2009 my main part of the job is management, but I still have approximately ten percent of teaching activities.
