'The essence of strategy is choosing what not to do.'

This quote from Michael Porter reflects my approach in work-making informed choices.

With a background in corporate finance and strategy, I work at the intersection of these fields. After earning a Bachelor's degree in Economics and Business Economics, I further deepened my knowledge with a Master's degree in Finance & Investments. My career began at a Big 4 firm, where I learned the basics of the advisory profession and dealt with a wide range of strategic issues.

At Groendus, I was given the opportunity to broaden my expertise as an internal consultant and to delve more deeply into corporate finance and M&A in addition to strategy. Here I gained extensive knowledge of the renewable energy sector in the Netherlands, worked from head to tail on M&A transactions and contributed to the company's long-term strategy and business planning. This role enabled me to link financial analysis to strategic decision making, which represented an important development in my career.

In my current position at JBR, I focus on a broad spectrum of strategic projects and sectors. With a solid background in corporate finance and strategy, I support companies in their growth and in responding to market changes. My ability to turn financial data into strategic opportunities contributes to realizing sustainable growth for organizations.
