My Interests outside work
I enjoy planning trips from A to Z, which my family benefits from (most of the time). I also enjoy cooking, dancing, playing the piano and staying active through CrossFit and sailing. Whenever possible, I recharge with walks in nature, or by the sea. I am also involved in volunteering and have founded www.empowerjrc.eu, the professional network for JRC Ispra staff partners and spouses.
My Favourite Brussels anecdote
In Brussels, you can start the day discussing about the EU, have lunch in three different languages and end up running into a client at the airport. Itβs a small city, but it never really feels like one.
