Ever since the day I got my first computer (I was 10 or 11 years old) I've had a curiosity for all things digital. Because I always want(ed) to know 'why things were the way they were' and 'how things work', I learned early on how to find my way in the digital space. My curiosity grew into passion and love for branding, marketing & communication; not specifically in a 'digital only' space.Because I don't necessarily believe in 'hunting' or 'farming' (I believe in 'taking care of') I gradually moved from Sales & Marketing to Communities. Although I can and will lead the pack - and have done so - I believe in 'stronger & faster together'; like a peloton of cyclists.I am an advocate of building and maintaining honest & strong personal and business relationships, and I believe to have a creative and open view towards initiatives that produce value on both sides.Personally, I strive to be approachable, friendly, creative & inventive and I like to meet new people, go flying, ride my bike or play my guitar. I just want to make life interesting and fun. Every day!I am keeping myself up-to-date about the convergence of everyday life, communities and digital. Hopefully this way, I can help others understand how these contribute to everyday life, what this means for organizations and what is appropriate and relevant to incorporate into (digital) business initiatives.Specialties: community building & management, (digital) marketing & communications, branding, business & personal relationships, online & offline integration.
