About me

Experienced, academically trained and self-motivated

I am an IT specialist with more than twenty years of hands-on experience across the Microsoft stack — from Windows Server and SQL Server to Azure and Azure DevOps. With an academic education and a scientific way of working, I like to get to the bottom of problems and solve them for good.

In 2012 I founded ITdone4U, through which I work as an independent consultant for organisations such as Deloitte, Transavia, the Dutch Police, ANWB, KPN and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
