Why a personal website? It's only to proof to myself that I still have the basic knowledge and skills. Am I still able to learn and use basic knowledge and skills in order to create and publish a website? Can I master those AWS and GitHub basics? Ow, and how to run a local webserver again? After many different websites (static HTML, Flash animation, Joomla, WordPress), I'm now back to slashing my way through a free template of a 'one page website'. From 'Learn or perish' to 'Learn and accept things do perish' ;-)
My personal drive is to help people and organisations to achieve their goals. I enjoy working in a multicultural environment, together with business and development teams. At the end of the day, I get my satisfaction from actually delivering solutions which allow people and organisations to achieve their goals; both now and in the future.
Through my work as an analyst and project lead, I've been further strengthened in my believe that creating valuable (software) solutions is as much about communication as it is about the technical aspects of creating that solution.
Living in the Netherlands, together with my wife. Enjoying the outdoors a lot, either through cycling or fishing. Spending time with family and friends isn't too bad neither.
