Top SchoolLeo Van Kampenhout is a freelance researcher and adviser with 11 years of experience bridging applied mathematics, scientific software engineering and climate science, including a PhD in glaciology from Utrecht University. He writes and applies climate and hydrological models, high-performance code (Python, C++, Fortran) and data analysis workflows to questions spanning ice-sheet mass balance, sea-level rise and pesticide monitoring.
