In my role as a Program leader Sustainable Water at Woord en Daad, I work at developing a portfolio of projects contributing to access to water and sanitation and improved management of water for all, and particularly for underserviced people in rural areas. As a professional I search to push the frontier of solutions and approaches in the global development sector, in a role of connecting organizations and experts to co-create responses to complex issues.

With a background in agronomy from Wageningen University, I worked for a number of years in South-Sudan and Kenya on food security and WASH programs as well as resilience and emergency interventions. Also I worked on capacity strengthening and organizational development trajectories with implementing organizations.
