Born in the Netherlands, raised in Belgium, studied in Austria, worked in all western Europe. Experiences that made me multicultural, bilingual, and taught me to stay curious and flexible.

My curiosity and eagerness to learn helped me pass a bachelor and two master degrees: mining engineering (the base of any industry) and theoretical physics so I could understand why everything is as it is. Adding a doctorate on a highly complex topic and an MBA finetuned my capabilities of analysing and breaking down complex problems.

I have worked in many environments, but I never lost sight of the internal and external customer.
My independent creativity brought disruptive new products to live. Be it in food, security, data, or platforms. I am a self-starter who likes to question the status quo.
