Passionate development practitioner looking for a new challenge in sustainable food supply chains
Passionate development practitioner looking for a new challenge in sustainable food supply chains
  • Almere, Netherlands
  • 9 augustus 2022

I am interested in (the logistics of) food chains and food systems, food security and how certain agricultural practices help increase community resilience. I am currently looking for a position as development practitioner, consultant or in research that can offer me a platform to put my skills to good use.

I am a connecter that easily identifies the qualities in and skills of others. Building bridges between different stakeholders is something I enjoy doing and comes to me naturally. I am self-reliant, though I also enjoy working and co-creating with others in which I do not shy away from taking on the lead. I am goal-oriented and capable of thinking of creative solutions on the spot.

In my free time I enjoy good food and conversations with friends, making music and I believe learning is a process that lasts a life-time. Interested? Let's have a chat!
