book a chemistry call

Welcome to my online library! You may have noticed that I share a lot of books I learn from in my blogposts. This is because, not a surprise, I love to read! I always make sure to have a library or bring my eReader with me wherever I go which is, in itself, a portable library.

Below is a collection of books I’ve been reading to stay updated on my craft and expand my understanding of the world. They are categorized in topics. This page is updated regularly.

What they say

Having Chared as a colleague is a valuable asset. Chared has excellent leadership and strategic communication skills. She is a very good (active) listener, which gives her the ability to provide valuable inputs. She always has the best interest of the team at heart and is an inspiration. It would be a pleasure to have our path cross again.

Former colleague, FEMS & EHA
Having Chared as part of the Lean In | Netherlands team of volunteers has been amazing. Chared has a creative mindset and she is a powerful brainstormer, which allow her to bring to the table a strong skillset of creativity, leadership & team spirit. Chared is a good listener and she is always honest with her opinions which makes her a great team leader.
