About
Throughout my career, I've led dynamic teams and collaborated closely with business leaders to align legal and business objectives strategically. This involves ensuring compliance and crafting strategies that deliver tangible value to stakeholders within and beyond the organisation. With an MBA from Maastricht School of Management (Entrepreneurship and Innovation focus) and an LL.M. from Tilburg University (Law and Technology specialisation), I possess a unique blend of legal acumen and business strategy.
