I’ve always been fascinated by the moment people move: when someone sees themselves a little differently, when a team finally clicks, when a leader dares to do it their own way. I’ve seen those moments happen in boardrooms, and I’ve seen them happen on a snowy ridge at sunrise.

With a background in Work & Organizational Psychology and a master’s in Sports & Performance Psychology from the University of Amsterdam, I design and facilitate programs in talent development, traineeships, team development and leadership. As a certified wilderness guide, I take groups into nature to learn what no classroom can teach.

Op Steenworp is where those two worlds meet. The name means “a stone’s throw away”: growth is often closer than you think. Sometimes you just need to step outside to find it.

What drives me

• Energy. Learning should feel alive, not like another day of slides.
• Depth. Psychology and evidence behind every exercise.
• Adventure. Growth starts just outside your comfort zone.
• Connection. Real conversations, real people, real change.
