I support companies in finding new clients through the creative use of IT and marketing. These two fields of work have gained more and more overlap in recent years. I speak both languages and am currently up to date with the latest developments in both areas.
I use my knowledge and network for multiple organizations, including multi-nationals and companies in science and healthcare. Besides this, I put my skills at the disposal of the Dutch Tangoweek Foundation, an organization that organizes the only tango music festival in Western Europe.
