// About
Connecting technology, business and human workflows.
I started as a developer, moved into UX and product thinking, and evolved toward delivery leadership and consulting. Today I help organizations turn complex ideas into practical, scalable solutions that people actually use.
What makes me different is that I combine technical understanding with communication and delivery — prototyping, testing ideas, and working closely with engineers, stakeholders and business teams to make solutions usable, realistic and operationally effective.

// Current focus
AI Delivery & Human-Centered AI.
My focus is increasingly on helping organizations introduce AI pragmatically, safely, and with real operational value — not hype. That means de-risking ideas early, keeping humans in the loop, and shipping AI that fits how teams actually work.

Let's de-risk your next AI move.
Based in Amsterdam, working with teams everywhere. If you have an unclear problem, a stalled AI initiative, or a delivery that needs structure — let's talk.
