I help brands turn digital strategy into measurable growth 🚀
I’m a senior digital marketing strategist with extensive international experience, specialising in digital-first strategies, performance marketing, and end-to-end campaign execution. I work with brands that want more than activity - they want clarity, traction, and results.
My strength lies in translating complex market insights into clear strategies and high-performing campaigns across paid, social, and multi-channel ecosystems. From cross-border launches to always-on performance frameworks, I combine creative thinking with data-driven execution 🎯 to drive sustainable growth.
What I do best:
- Build and lead digital & performance marketing strategies that drive acquisition, engagement, and revenue
- Design and execute high-impact campaigns across Meta, LinkedIn, Google, and social platforms
- Localize and scale campaigns across markets while keeping a strong, consistent brand narrative
- Use data, AI, and automation to optimize performance, workflows, and decision-making 🤖
I work as a hands-on partner - proactive, outcome-focused, and accountable for results. If you’re looking for someone who can think strategically, execute fast, and own performance, you’re in the right place 🤝

Strategy, branding, and product development for the fashion industry, especially those focused on innovation. With a background in (footwear) design and engineering, my skillset is very diverse. I quickly grasp technical concepts and products as an engineer, but also have an eye for detail and a strong aesthetic sense as a designer. I've done projects in different industries for startups to multinationals: footwear, fashion, fashion-tech, but also technology, architecture, construction, healthcare, food, etc.
I am your perfect match if you are looking for someone who can be a reliable resource you can consult to shape and realize your (fashion) business and marketing strategy. Moreover, I've been active in the startup world (Northern Europe and the San Francisco Bay Area) for 10 years if you are looking for someone to help grow your company internationally.

With a strong academic foundation in Art History and Economics—acquired at Ghent University and UC Berkeley—and enriched by professional experiences at Christie’s and in the art gallery world of Mexico City, I bring a unique blend of cultural insight, analytical and research rigor, and language expertise. My background bridges art, marketing, business, and linguistics, enabling me to help ideas and people connect more deeply and authentically across multidisciplinary contexts.
As an AI Trainer, I evaluate and improve large language models (LLMs) across diverse domains—both within and beyond my specialties—applying critical judgment on factual accuracy, linguistic quality, and ethical considerations with an ever present eye for detail and improvement.
Fluent in English and Dutch, I also work as a translator, content analyst, and art marketing consultant. Through my own marketing agency, I support the commercial art world in its broadest sense from emerging creatives to globally leading art galleries with tailored storytelling, strategic content creation, and marketing coaching.
Driven by a deep fascination with people, language, and beauty, I maintain a constant commitment to adaptability, learning, and professional growth. Whether collaborating with technology, artists, or businesses, I strive to foster clarity, connection, and meaningful transformation.
