Welcome!
Thank you for visiting my website, I greatly appreciate the interest!
My name is Jeffrey Breugelmans, and I am a Dutch native who currently studies at Northeastern University in Boston, MA. USA. At Northeastern, I am working on my Ph.D. thesis in Industrial Engineering, with a focus on Human Factors Engineering in particular. I am proud to say that I have found a field of study that matches my personal interest perfectly. More information about my current project and educational background can be found under the Academics tab in the navigation bar at the top of this page.
Apart from being a full-time student and Teaching Assistant at Northeastern University, I am also a sports enthusiast. I really enjoy snowboarding, so the North-East is not a bad place for me. During the winter season I like to make as many day-trips as I can, along with the occasional weekend trip to Vermont, Maine, or New Hampshire. Despite my move to the US, my biggest interest is still soccer, or football as we call it. I used to play very competitively in the Netherlands, so I was glad to find out that I could still play in various recreational leagues in and around Boston all year long. You can find some more information on my extracurricular activities under the Miscellaneous tab.
For one of my former course projects, I had to design my own video game. This proved to be extremely fun, though at times also frustrating. Overall I greatly enjoyed this experience. It also helped me to come up with my current thesis project: to design a video game and interface system that would be accessible to those who cannot operate the conventional keyboard mouse interface. Since I completed the course in the spring of 2010 the on-line version of the game has become somewhat outdated, but feel free to explore this Virtual Island game (quite literally), using the Video Game tab at the top of the page.
If you have any more questions or if you would like to share your ideas, please feel free to contact me. You can email me at contact@jeffreybreugelmans.com, or you can use the Contact Form that is provided on this website.
