I am a purpose-driven and strategic movement maker, presenter and public speaker with a hands-on approach to production. Drawing from my 8+ years of international experience in community building, storytelling, and event & content production, I thrive on connecting people and driving positive change. With a background in communication science, international relations, yoga, mindfulness, permaculture design and regenerative leadership, my mission is to rekindle the connection between people and nature. In 2019 I co-created the Amsterdam Doughnut Coalition, a grassroots movement consisting of more than 1000 people in Amsterdam who are actively applying the principles of the doughnut economy. The impact of this initiative resonated globally, leading me to speak at numerous influential conferences, ranging from Berlin to Tokyo. My insights of the doughnut economy were featured in interviews with TIME Magazine and I had the privilege to deliver a TEDx talk about a regenerative future. Finally, I founded an international community, encompassing 30+ cities worldwide, to facilitate knowledge sharing and collaboration in driving the adoption of the doughnut economy. Let's connect and create a regenerative future together! Watch and read about my work in the following media: TEDx talk TIME Magazine SKY NEWS YES Magazine De Standaard La Liberation

Over 19 years of experience with leading local and foreign companies across diverse industrial sectors and functions, I am a results-oriented professional with extensive experience in strategy development, leadership, stakeholder management, and business development. With a strong focus on cross-functional collaboration and analytical skills, I excel in identifying growth opportunities and creating strategic partnerships. At KSBL, I'm responsible for enhancing the school's market position through industry linkages, marketing activities, and representation at industry events. I'm responsible for fundraising strategies, successfully developing an annual fundraising plan and achieving defined targets by raising funds from external sources. Prior to my existing role, I served as the Chief of Staff to the CEO and Rector, where I played a crucial role in driving the institution's overall transformation agenda and achieved significant revenue growth in executive education for select corporate clients and secured substantial grants through a demand-driven narrative. During my tenure at Habib Bank Limited, I held senior leadership positions, including Senior Vice President and Vice President, where I specialized in project finance, retail banking product management, and cash management. I successfully executed complex project finance transactions, negotiated term sheets, and raised substantial debt financing for power plants. Furthermore, I played a key role in designing and launching innovative products, expanding client coverage, and driving revenue growth in cash management. Earlier in my career, I gained valuable experience at Citibank N.A., where I managed the Securities and Issuer Services business and developed new products to meet customer needs. I consistently exceeded revenue targets, grew assets under custody, and secured significant M&A transactions. Additionally, I contributed to the development and launch of a US dollar-denominated investment bond product and facilitated Citi's membership as a custodian clearing member. I hold a Bachelor of Science degree from Purdue University, USA, and have received numerous accolades throughout my career, including the Celent Innovation Award and Global Custodian nominations. I have also undergone extensive training in areas such as leadership, risk management, and consumer risk. Beyond my professional endeavors, I maintain an active interest in physical fitness and organic farming. With a track record of driving growth, fostering strategic partnerships, and achieving exceptional results, I am a dynamic leader with a passion for creating positive change in the business and education sectors.
