My Job

My Experience

I started off in Brussels in a small specialized consultancy, then moved to an international consultancy before starting Afore Consulting in 2007. I studied politics, history and economics at university before training as a merchant banker with ABN Amro in Hamburg which gave me a solid foundation for life in consultancy.

With spending so much time at home over the past months, I have enjoyed catching up on reading. That said, I am looking forward to getting back to travelling, seeing family again and meeting people in person.
My Favourite Brussels anecdote
In our job we get to walk the corridors of Brussels. Over the years we have met with many individuals and larger than life characters who have been committed to shaping Europe and have been gracious with their time and efforts. To all of them, too many to mention individually, we are greatly indebted.
