A new interesting challenge? Yes, please! I am able to quickly mix myself into new situations, acquire knowledge and skills, apply them and communicate them to others. In addition, quality delivery is of paramount importance to me, while at the same time monitoring the scope and time available. I also like to think in solutions, rather than in problems. As a person I follow innovative developments with enthusiasm and curiosity, I am an inquisitive type of person and regularly come up with new ideas.
