Professional Profile I am a freelance consultant, specialized in business analysis & project management. With many years of experience in different types of companies and in a wide variety of projects, I have build up a broad spectrum of knowledge. I’m focusing on IT-companies who, due to growth or restructuring, are facing a lack of knowledge regarding business analysis and project management. It will be my goal not to only help them with management and analysis, but also improve that lack of knowledge by supporting internal people or giving custom-made trainings.
Problem solving
Analytical mindset
Out-of-the-box thinking
Finally, I’m strongly client-oriented, I enjoy working with other people and have a creative mindset to look for solutions within the available structure and resources.
