- I am 42 years old and live with my wife Karen, daughter Kato, and dachshund Olly in Scherpenheuvel.
- For the past 6 years, I have been working as a freelance ICT & Project manager for SMEs & family businesses (including Vulpia, Asap HR Group, Argenta & Ducatt). I assist them in identifying digital challenges, drafting an IT Roadmap, exploring and aiding in the implementation of suitable solutions, and coaching to future-proof their IT.
- Before my freelance work, I accumulated significant expertise in large corporations such as Unizo, AB-Inbev, Swift, Ingram Micro, National Lottery, Delaware, etc.
- My thirst for knowledge and my ability to quickly embrace new concepts have enabled me to keep up with the constantly changing IT landscape. Since we operate in an ever-evolving environment, continuous growth is an absolute necessity. In essence, stagnation means regression.
- I am actively involved in various IT communities like CIOnet, VOKA, Mgt Events, and ODUM, where I establish valuable relationships and exchange knowledge and insights.
- My experience also encompasses leading change programs, and I am certified in PMI, Prince2, Agile (Scrum Master), and ITIL. A change is only successful when the customer is happy, and we have jointly created added value.
- My technical background is diverse and multifaceted. I started my career focusing on IT infrastructure and have gradually expanded my expertise to business applications and processes.
