Technology Officer

Stedelijke Academie voor Schone Kunsten SASK

You could say that I have been creative ever since I was born. I believe that from childhood to adulthood, a bit of creativity is lost because the world "forces" us to walk in a straitjacket at the expense of creativity. I therefore picked up the thread later in life by going to art school. In the six years that I followed this Academy, I noticed very strongly that my creativity started to develop further to where I am now. My "thing" is to find a mix between technique, painting and creativity and to get this on canvas or in a 3D object.

Key Account Manager Led Solutions

I am always looking for a healthy balance between technological innovations and market needs. My technical-commercial background helps me to explain complex issues in an understandable way. 

I get excited and happy when I can achieve predefined goals with a team of people. This can be in the professional field, but also outside of it. I strongly believe in the power of sharing success stories as well as setbacks in order to learn from them and reach a higher level.

Creativity runs like a thread through my life. Everyone has received creativity from their earliest childhood, many have lost it along the way due to imposed structures of society, but it is still present in everyone.

I found my creative "trigger" during my 6-year education at the art academy and it has only made me richer, also in my current job! I can recommend everyone to look for it if he or she has lost it!
