Now we're building it ourselves.

I've been working in Dutch higher education as researcher, lecturer, and coordinator for innovation studies and programs for roughly 8 years. Now, I've decided to start my own academy; Fundamentals Academy. From there, I'm fully engaged in higher and professional education. It aims to boost the creative industry, offering programs and tools to develop the creative professionals we so desperately need.

The future professionals need to challenge and solve tomorrow's issues. Therefor I'm glad to be working with a team and amazing partners that are eager to develop more engaging (educational) programs and environments. Here, we include professionals as tutors and corporate partners as clients, to help students better understand the world we're preparing them for. Both within existing educational organisations, and in crisp new ones, I'm developing engaging programs aiming to make a difference.

Another endeavor we offer, is Studio Abstederdijk, a hub for creative enterpreneurs in the heart of Utrecht.
