My name is Quirine and I'm a full-time student from Amsterdam (currently working on a research project in San Diego, CA).
I'm mostly interested in the cognitive aspects of the brain and improving scientific research methodology.

After a long day of being a student, I like to relax and work out. I spend most of my free time pole dancing and working on my flexibility. Besides that, I love playing with fire (in a safe way). I've got a fire hula hoop and I eat and breath fire.
