Works at Children's Perspective because
I like to look across country borders and find it inspiring to learn from each other. I enjoy seeking connection and depth. Children's Perspective offers wonderful projects in which all of this comes together. This motivates me to explore what works, what connects, what is needed and where we want to go.
My background: From 2009 to 2016 I enjoyed working at Kinderperspectief, in which I had the opportunity to develop Kwikstart and coordinate buddy projects for newcomers, among other things. After that I was active in development work with my family for almost eight years, mainly in Papua New Guinea. We have been back in the Netherlands since 2024 because of our sons' education and I look forward to enthusiastically getting back to work at Kinderperspectief.

Runs hot for
I am always curious about what really moves people, and love it when they want to share their experiences in order to get to the core. Discovering new possibilities together gives me energy. I get satisfaction from working in (international) teams and diverse cultures. I want to contribute to the world and make a difference with Kinderperspectief projects.
