I am a researcher in religious history at the Free University of Brussels (ULB), Belgium.

I am interested in contemporary Western esotericism and all interdisciplinary research related to this subject. My interests are many: Mystical Theology, Renaissance magic, Hermeticism, Freemasonry, Rosicrucianism, Perennialism, Occultism, and initiatic orders.

My doctoral research focuses on Christian esoteric movements in Europe in the twentieth century.

I organize an annual academic seminar on the history of Freemasonry and esotericism.
I am also a founding member of the "Masonic and Esoteric Movements Research Study Group" (GREMME).
