I graduated in 1988 and started to work as an assistant-manager for CBB in the Netherlands. CBB provides construction management services for large building projects. In 1996 I became the CEO of this company. Over the past few years CBB has grown to be one of the leading companies in the field of construction management. In 2006 I started Knooble, a company focusing on internet applications.

I am committed to a life of continuous learning. For me this means working on new insights and skills by attending management programs at various universities. These include Berkeley, Harvard, MIT and Stanford.
