Hi there, welcome

$whoami? 

Karlijn Roex | Still proud of the book from my hands that Uitgeverij Lontano published in 2019: In verwarde staat | Obsessed by the architect Arata Isozaki's philosophy on ruin, and the videogame NieR Automata | Sociologist, employed policy researcher and - one day at a week - freelancer | PhD-degree from Max Planck Institute | Nowadays I write more code than books.

I currently work as a policy researcher and, on Wednesdays, I'm a freelance speaker, author and performer. My work aims to contribute to a more inclusive society towards neurodivergent people like myself, and towards people with mental health problems. Recently, I worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Amsterdam (Institute for Logic, Language and Computation & Faclt. of Humanities).

Moreover, I write books, give seminars, review your text with my critical eye, and... also do professional theatre. Since my start in the fall of 2019, I have touched many hearts with my stories and made it frequently into the newspapers.

The English language corner of my website is in an early stage of progress. Now that I'm finally feeling like web developing again (but terribly busy), I plan to improve it all. However, it will never be complete. But feel free to look around.
