about me
I have decades of experience in radio and television journalism. This mainly concerns the presentation of programmes, the making and recording of voice-over texts and conducting interviews. I have also been active in the field of amateur theater for decades and I have followed training as a training actor in the business world. My strength is my professionalism and my focus on results. When there is a problem or a job, I immediately go for it and throw myself at work with full energy. I want to finish something and do it right. I am helped in this by my extensive experience in journalism and my specialist knowledge in fields such as presentation, copywriting, research and production. I am creative in combining content and design. I am good at inspiring and transferring knowledge.
