My bachelor studies in communication, marketing (Ghent) and software development (UC Berkeley), together with my addiction to human psychology and talking to users led me to careers in marketing, support, operations & QA.
Thanks to my data and user-centric problem-solving skills, I transitioned into product management and eventually process management. I tackled big, hairy and ambiguous problems for tech companies, big and small in San Francisco, Dublin, Paris and Ghent.
I was lucky enough to work for Stripe for 3 years, while it was still considered a startup and going through rapid scaling. After Stripe, I became a consultant and professor in Design Thinking to International Business Students in Belgium.
Some examples of my product management work.
During the day I heavily rely on my analytical brain. I balance this out by nourishing my right and creative brain at night.
In 2017 I became an auto-didact in drawing, this led to a grant from the Irish government to study animation at Pulse College (while working fulltime at Stripe). I am currently studying a Master’s in Fine Arts (Design Sketching).
