Who I am
I'm a generalist with a practical view of technology. I think analytically and like to get to the root of a problem. I connect technical and business interests. My work is about data, IT, governance, and building and running systems people can trust. I'm a good listener and a mediator, with a sense of humour.
Outside of work
Outside of work I'm mostly a curious cook, telly addict and drinker. In the kitchen it's all about Italian food: pasta, good olive oil and the patience to let a sauce become what it should be. I have opinions on politics, both in The Hague and in Washington, and I know I sometimes go on about it for too long. I still watch linear TV on the sofa: 2 voor twaalf, De Slimste Mens, Lubach and Vandaag Inside. That's my fixed night in.
When it comes to drinks I love a good beer, a vodka, and a cup of coffee or tea. And I'm unreasonably addicted to berehappen, the Dutch bar snacks. When we go out, I'd much rather end up in an old bruin café than a fancy restaurant.
My cats
Jinx
Jinx is small, scared of everything, super sweet and not the brightest.



Snow
Snow is big, not scared of anything, deaf, and does his own thing.
