With over 35 years of experience in IT, cybersecurity, and international business, I help organizations, professionals, and teams lead and adapt to transformative change.
As a certified career and team coach, business mentor, and serial entrepreneur, I offer practical guidance in the fields of:
🌱 Real Estate Sustainability
I provide sustainability training programs for homeowners and associations (VvE’s), deliver tailored advice on improving private real estate, and guide implementation from start to finish. I act as the link between residents, contractors, and subsidy agencies — ensuring your project is both sustainable and successful.
🌍 (International) Business Advisory & Mentorship
I support companies in scaling operations and entering new markets. Through market research, supply chain analysis, and partner development, I help create solid market entry strategies and build effective local ecosystems.
📦 “You Can Learn to Export” Training
This hands-on training program is designed for entrepreneurs and professionals who want to grow internationally. I cover topics like market research, legal frameworks, logistics, cooperation, and available subsidies — offering practical tools to accelerate export success.
🛡️ IT & Cybersecurity Expertise
From secure web applications and backend architecture to cybersecurity and digital transformation, I support teams in building robust, scalable systems. I’ve developed tools and solutions using Ruby-on-Rails, JavaScript, Apple-based platforms, WordPress, and RapidWeaver — always with security, efficiency, and future-proofing in mind.
🚀 Career Coaching & Start-up Mentorship
I’ve helped over 300 professionals transition into new roles, leadership positions, or more meaningful work. I specialize in coaching programs for job seekers (e.g., STAP, NL Leert Door, 45+ loopbaanadvies) and guide start-ups and scale-ups in building resilient, purpose-driven teams — using both traditional methods and high-speed coaching powered by AI.
🤝 Giving Back
I volunteer as a coach at CarrièreCoachCafé, Torch/Everwise, and the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. I believe in giving back to the communities that made my career possible.
