At the weekend: I’m doing as many things as I can! I love being active: dancing, doing (extreme) sports, being creative, going to music or cultural events, or vintage markets.

An idea that powers me: Creating a future in which sharing is the new normal. A future where social inclusion is embedded in society, because all societal groups can have access to different types of products. Our environmental footprint heavily decreases, because we now share products instead of owning them. This idea inspires me incredibly!
