Connecting people to serve humanity.
Today.
Welcome to my personal webpage! Maybe we’ve met before, or maybe we’re about to meet. Either way: I’m happy you’re here!
On this website you’ll find some information about my latest activities and projects. I am available as a speaker or workshop host, and always more than happy to help you bring ideas to life that make the world a better place. Simply shoot me a message and let’s find out how we can work together.

What I’ve been up to
After having founded and scaled-up a pr-agency in Amsterdam for 12 years, I started The Present in 2017, a movement that connects entrepreneurs to social initiatives, including projects for refugees, newcomers, and homeless people.
Next to The Present I give talks about my books ‘Het idealenboek’ (about putting your ideals into action) & ‘MensenHandel’ (which is about entrepreneurship and a plea for putting ‘people first’), and I volunteer as a NLGroeit mentor, a governmental incubator program that helps the top-5% of Dutch business owners to scale-up their company.
And last but not least I’m also part of Blyde Benelux (B-Corp), the number one pr-agency in The BeNeLux for sustainable brands & social enterprises, as a ‘silent partner’.
