About meI have a PhD in Computer Science from Ghent University researching data operations (DataOps) and optimization of data storage solutions. During that time, I developed the Tengu platform to unlock technical storage solutions for researchers. Between July 2016 and May 2021, Gregory Van Seghbroeck and I brought Tengu from the academic world into the industry where we ran a team of 12 people.About OvintoCurrently I am active as the Chief Technology Officer at Ovinto. Ovinto is a supply chain command center that captures data from the software suite of our customers, analyzes and enhances that data, and ultimately using it to orchestrate actions for our customers. As such we are automating and digitizing a lot of their workflows. We are currently active in the (Petro)Chem industry in Europe, but expanding our reach in other sectors as well.Aside from work, I am an active Rotarian (Gent - Portus Ganda) and spend free time organizing events to help bring in money for the many charities we support.
