I’ve spent the past years working in Data & Analytics, but what I really care about is how people and organizations navigate change. Data is simply the environment where I learned how decisions are made, how teams work under pressure, and what happens when systems scale faster than clarity.

My work often centers around helping teams and leaders make sense of complexity. Not by adding more answers or frameworks, but by asking better questions, creating direction, and building the conditions for people to do their best work. I’ve found that most technical problems are actually organizational ones, and most organizational problems come down to choice, ownership, and communication.

Alongside this professional path, movement and sport have always shaped how I approach leadership. I grew up as a long track speed skater and competed at national level until my early twenties. It taught me discipline, a growth mindset, and a healthy dose of humility. That last part came after a disqualification at the Dutch allround championships, which showed me how much mindset shapes outcome.

Years later, climbing and mountaineering became the next chapter of that learning. It’s a practice that forces presence, calm decision-making, and trust in your body. Physical challenges keep me grounded in a world that moves fast, and it reminds me that progress comes from stability, not hurry.

This mix of analytical work, leadership, and physical practice shapes how I show up today. I try to approach organizations the same way I approach a difficult climb: stay aware of what’s actually happening, make deliberate choices, and adjust without losing balance.

This site brings together the different parts of that journey. You’ll find writing on Data & Analytics, leadership, and organizational change, as well as side projects, code, and the occasional reflection on what I’m learning.

Thanks for being here and for sharing an interest in making change work a little more consciously.
