Where are you from?

The Netherlands

What is your anthem song?

Post Malone - Chemical

Do you have any hobbies or passions?

I love discovering new places, new experiences, and new ideas and insights, whether that is through travel, books, music, or the latest tech. Outside work, you’ll usually find me travelling to new places, reading on my e-reader, checking out the newest gadgets, especially anything Apple, on a soccer pitch as a goalkeeper, or listening to vinyl. Music is a big passion of mine, and I still enjoy DJ-ing from time to time.

People would be surprised if they knew this about me?

People are often surprised to hear that I’m actually an introvert. I’ve learned to be comfortable leading conversations and driving things forward at work, and I can be quite energetic and loud, but I recharge best with quiet time, a good book, some red wine, music, or just space to think.

What's your favorite project at Keyrus?

My favorite project so far has been with a global investment company. While it originally began under Vuealta, before the Keyrus acquisition, it stands out as my most meaningful engagement because it was the first time I delivered end to end as both a Functional Consultant and Solution Architect. From process mapping and requirements gathering through to user stories and UAT, I had ownership across the full journey.

What made it particularly rewarding was seeing everything move from paper to product, turning process maps and user stories into a working Anaplan solution that users could genuinely test and use. It was a great learning experience and a real milestone in my professional development.

What tools do you love working with?

I enjoy working with tools that bring structure to complexity and help turn ideas into something practical. I rely a lot on ClickUp, Todoist, and Evernote to support planning, collaboration, and productivity. What I enjoy most is making those tools work together rather than in silos.

My dream project at Keyrus would be:

My dream project at Keyrus is not really a single project. My ambition is to grow into a Delivery Lead role, where I can bring together project leadership, stakeholder management, and solution delivery to help teams and clients succeed. It is a role that would allow me to build on the experience I have gained over the years and apply my strengths in leadership, structure, problem-solving, and connecting people, process, and delivery.

What has been your career journey?

My career journey started in project management and digital transformation, and over time evolved into broader delivery leadership and consulting roles. Along the way, I have worked with startups and technology providers, led innovation and data management initiatives across regions, and delivered enterprise applications and large-scale business transformation projects. Across all of these roles, I have gradually moved closer to the intersection of business, process, and technology, which is where I feel most at home.

What is your area of expertise?

My area of expertise lies in connecting business, people, and technology. I specialize in translating complex requirements into clear solutions, with a strong focus on delivery, stakeholder alignment, process design, and enterprise applications.

What are your WFH or office must-haves?

Good coffee, reliable tech, and a setup where everything is linked and organized. If the gadgets work and the to-do list makes sense, we’re already off to a good start.
