Originally from the Netherlands, I now live in Madrid. From a young age, I felt the need to broaden my horizons and say "yes" to new challenges. This led me to entrepreneurship, world travel, living abroad, and many wonderful experiences that were on my bucket list. That urge to explore has shaped my life and my work.

My three sons are what drive me most. I strongly believe in leading by example. That's why I joined Generous Minds: with like-minded people, you can truly build and create greater impact in the long term. I'm passionate about supporting entrepreneurs who want to realize their mission.

After a period in the corporate world, I (co-)founded and sold two companies. I've also mentored and advised countless start-ups through their growth and investment phases.

I feel at home in international environments and enjoy working with technology-driven companies, whether in IT, AI, or emerging domains. What matters is that the mission is sound and the entrepreneurs strive for a positive impact.
