My talent

Making complex themes interesting and understandable. And, where possible, enjoyable too.

The right context and storytelling around a problem or solution can add exactly that little bit that makes a project click.

My education

MSc. Strategic Product Design – Delft University of Technology
BSc. Industrial Design Engineering – Delft Univerity of Technology

People and organizations that inspire me

Fork Ranger: Inspiring people to make practical and effective changes in their lives. And not to forget, an impressive amount of perseverance and entrepreneurship.

BEAT Cycling Club: A professional cycling team that dares to do things differently. Working against the current to drive change, while staying close to your ideals and moral values, even when that slows down growth.

What I like to do in my spare time

Sports! I’m up for almost any sport, but right now cycling, running, Hyrox or a game of padel make me happiest.

Getting out into nature. From hiking to multi-day treks with a tent in the mountains.
