Snowboarding
Reading (fantasy), Gaming and sometimes Cosplay
Hiking, Downhill biking and mountainbiking
Creative, sporty and a bit of a nerd
And a mother of a one-year-old. We live together with my husband in Heinenoord, a little village near Rotterdam. I love coaching and helping other people.
Working in a design system team and working as a lead has taught me many lessons about communication, expectations, and working toward the same goals. It has formed me into a thoughtful, patient colleague, while maintaining my honesty and clarity in communication and actions.
I like to do diverse work such as researching (and data) and designing, but strategy is also something I prefer to work on.
I'm currently investigating front-end component development to learn how we can optimize the Design-to-Development process through Figma and AI automation.
I see designers transitioning into consultative and supervisory roles as AI assumes greater responsibility for design. Design systems can increasingly showcase their importance in this evolving landscape.
Protagonists make the people who work for them feel not just motivated but also inspired. Their tolerance and easy sociability makes it easy for them to relate to their colleagues. They are hardworking, reliable, and eager to help.

Jumbo colleague
I appreciate the honest check-in moments we have had.
Enthusiasm for 'the new': You seem to feel well when things are not yet set in stone, paving the path is what you seem to enjoy. Please continue to do so!
Down to earth and dreaming at same time: I really appreciate how you combine the vision of where you want Kompas to go, with small actionable items that bring you towards that vision step-by-step.
