My professional career is an unconventional one, where I chose to let my passion dictate my career choices. That lead to a path where I spent over a decade dedicating my life to working in the skiing industry, during which\u00a0I had the unique opportunity to start and build the Dutch side of a company called Snowminds. Snowminds has since grown to become the world\u2019s biggest player in it’s field, educating and employing thousands of ski instructors around the world.\u00a0<\/p>

During this time, I experienced the early effects of climate change first hand. It made me decide to change course to apply myself to contribute to positive change, which I am proudly doing every day at Too Good To Go.\u00a0<\/p>

Away from work I enjoy spending time in the mountains, surfing and playing music, preferably together with my son Otto and wife Ester.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In my freetime, I spend quite a bit of time on photography. I share some of my work on the Stock-Image platform Unsplash and had a rather successful run since May 2020, with over 10.000.000 views and well over 100.000 downloads. In the past two years at Too Good To Go, I took the time to execute several partner photoshoots, which were used both for national campaigns, as well as global activations. Additionally throughout my years at Snowminds, I was actively involved with the branding and styling of the Snowminds brand and contributed substantial part of Snowminds\u2019 visual identity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
