Raised in sunny Los Angeles, California from the age of eight, and then returned to Holland fourteen years later. Working for many years as a software engineer at Philips Consumer Electronics and ICT Automation. Started my own company NovaTouch in 2007 developing user friendly computers for the elderly. At NovaText I provided website design, photography/video content development and technical writing services. Worked as journalist and TV Reporter for our local newspaper and TV Station. Currently working in the Metaverse on Virtual Reality at VR Quest Entertainment.

What I enjoy most is a combination of design and technology, which is why developing or improving technological user experiences is my favorite activity.
