High focus on transformation and footprint changes. Legal background, very result driven and solution oriented. Focus on what is essential versus trivial. Decision taker.

Feels at home in a matrix structure balancing out the interests of various stakeholders.

Passionate about transferring knowledge, building and developing strong performing and engaged teams.

I always look at the bright side of things and strongly believe that life is a wonderful journey with new experiences every day. That is why I want to become a mentor. Sharing experiences and learning from each other makes us all a better person.

Since more than 8 years I have discovered the benefits of yoga and meditation. When weather allows, I spend time outside walking or making a biking tour. Traveling is also a passion and truly enjoy meeting new people and cultures and food ! I am a child of the sea and I need to be on the beach on a regular basis. Watching the sea or the ocean is my preferred view.

In my free time, I love to go to the movies and concerts (really all kinds of music from classical to rock !).

My motto is never too old to learn
