I Read and do the Research So You Don’t Have To.

for one reason:
to turn complex data into understandable roadmaps for HS patients.

I am a multidisciplinary scientist with expertise spanning biomedical research, plant science, bioinformatics and mathematics.

This scientific training began with a Bachelor’s in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Amsterdam and a Master’s in Plant Biotechnology from Wageningen University & Research.

I recently completed my PhD in Biomedical Sciences at the University of Bern, Switzerland.

A Scientist’s Mind, a Patient’s Heart

My academic training gave me the tools to understand human biology, but it was a 10-year battle with severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa that forced me to truly understand this disease so my body would stop falling apart. I know the physical and psychological pain, and the absolute despair this disease can cause.

Although conventional medications can provide necessary relief, they are only part of the equation. HS is not just a surface-level skin condition, it is a complex metabolic and immunological disease. It is the visible result of completely disrupted internal homeostasis. By applying the scientific literature to my own body and rigorously testing targeted lifestyle interventions, I went from severe HS to totally symptom-free.

The standard medical system leaves HS patients stranded with generic lifestyle advice. That is why I built HS Arma. Inside, I explain exactly how I approached beating my own HS, and I am there to guide you in applying those same principles to take control of yours.
