Why do I work?

Work is a way to express myself. It's a way to keep learning and developing myself as a professional and as a human being. I actually don't like the distinction between the two, so you will hear me speak about human beings more than professionals.

Work is also a way to get energized, to meet new people who inspire, who challenge and who spark my life.

And yes, work is a way to fund the way I want to live.

This is also what I want to give to others. Work that fulfills personal needs and desires. Work that gives energy. Not drains it.

Work is a big part of life, so this is really important.

How do I do that?

Prototype You
With my work at Prototype You I help employees and teams experiment towards their ideal work experience, so that they discover how they can deliver their best work and get even more happiness and energy out of work. Naturally, the organisation benefits from this as well.

INholland University of Applied Sciences.
Coaching and training students to improve their skillset and mindset is work where I get a lot of energy from. Seeing young, ambitious people grow, develop and help them to get ready to work is a great experience.
To do this in an international context and an industry that is interesting and includes heaps of fun is a big plus for me: Tourism.
