About me: I’m originally from the Netherlands and hold two masters degrees, in Econometrics and in Actuarial Science and Mathematical Finance, both earned with distinction from the University of Amsterdam. My fascination with using data to replace assumptions with evidence has shaped both my studies and my career, and it continues to drive my interest in how data and AI can transform the way organisations operate.
Before joining the MBA programme at LBS, I spent nearly four years at Rewire, a data and AI consultancy working with companies across Europe. I progressed from Data Scientist/Consultant to Project Leader, leading teams on end-to-end data and AI transformation programmes. In that role, I collaborated closely with business and data leaders to help them leverage AI in more meaningful and strategic ways. Alongside this work, I taught courses on AI-driven transformation and facilitated Rewire’s six-week full-time AI bootcamp, coaching professionals to build the skills needed to drive lasting change within their organisations.
At LBS, I’m building on this experience by deepening my leadership and strategic toolkit and exploring how technology-driven change can be made more sustainable through people and culture. I chose LBS for its ambitious and diverse community, the flexibility of the curriculum, and the opportunity to learn in the heart of London.
Outside of LBS and AI, I’m a passionate Formula 1 and football fan who enjoys staying fit, good food, and even better company.
Three topics I can be approached about: Data and AI; consulting; choosing between MBA and One-year MBA.
