About
I specialise in digital product management, organising the development of websites, mobile apps and platforms with a focus on increasing customer satisfaction, revenue and growth.
I distinguish myself with my hands-on approach, extensive technical knowledge and my ability to converse at the right level of detail, be it with designers or developers, product and business owners or managers and stakeholders.
I work together with the team, always motivating and stimulating and pushing for better results. My passion is to find pragmatic but elegant solutions. I take responsibility and always look to challenge the process, the product and the team to achieve the best results.
