Design Director & Certified Coach

a versatile design director and certified coach originally from the US and currently based in Europe. With over 25 years of experience, I specialize in design thinking, visual problem solving, and storytelling, all with a strong emphasis on sustainability and creating positive impact.

I've been fortunate to collaborate with various leading Fortune 500 companies, startups, and social initiatives throughout my career. I've successfully delivered design solutions and led impactful marketing campaigns on a global scale.

For some clients, I act as an extension of their marketing team, continuously enhancing and designing their products and services. I serve as a reliable and comprehensive resource for others, guiding new projects and initiatives from start to finish.

When I'm not immersed in my work, I prioritize spending quality time with loved ones, engaging in activities like swimming, running, and exploring emerging technologies. Additionally, I am passionate about personal development and helping individuals become the best versions of themselves through my coaching practice at www.belongproject.com.

Here are some fun facts about me:

• I have completed 3 Ironman Triathlons and two half-Ironman Triathlons, but I mostly love to swim.

• Rearranging furniture in my home and office is a personal ritual that helps me clear my mind and stay focused.

• Despite living in the Netherlands for 13 years, my proficiency in Dutch is limited.

• I am #madebydyslexia, yes, I have dyslexia, and I love that I do!
