About

As a goal-driven and accomplished Sales & Operations Director with over 15 years of experience, I have consistently delivered above-target revenues and expanded account bases. My career spans various roles, including working with start-ups, managing business changes, implementing improvement programs, and overseeing acquisitions. My recent position at RTC, Concentrix International Europe in Amsterdam involved close collaboration with law enforcement and emergency services to ensure efficient resolution of emergency situations. Prior to that, as a Site Manager at Arcadia Technologies B.V., I was responsible for overall site operations, safety, department management, project execution, and compliance with relevant regulations. In my previous roles, I served as Teamleader Sales and Managing Director at Nederlandse Uitgevers Combinatie, where I directed day-to-day operations and exceeded sales goals across multiple verticals in The Netherlands and Belgium. As Director of Operations at FirstFocus, I developed and implemented a quality system and conducted performance evaluations. My career also includes roles such as Managing Editor at SearchCowboys, Sales Manager at FirstFocus, and Sales Manager for special projects at Search & Results. I am proficient in English, Dutch, Spanish, German, and French, and I hold various certifications including IAED EMD, EFD, EQD, and CCO. My strengths lie in leading by example, fostering strong relationships, and introducing a culture of transparency and collaboration within teams.

Best back-end engineers I've ever worked with...​

“I interviewed about a dozen different firms. DevsData LLC is truly exceptional – their backend developers are some of the best I’ve ever worked with. I’ve worked with a lot of very well-qualified developers, locally in San Francisco, and remotely, so that is not a compliment I offer lightly. I appreciate their depth of knowledge and their ability to get things done quickly. “
