I work at the intersection of healthcare, data and strategy, helping organizations turn data into meaningful decisions and tangible impact. With a background in research, innovation and data science, I have evolved towards a role in information management and data strategy, where the focus is not only on building solutions, but on making sure data is used effectively across the organization. My current focus areas include: • Defining and shaping data strategy aligned with organizational goals • Strengthening data governance, data quality and data ownership • Bridging the gap between business needs and technical solutions • Driving adoption of data-driven decision making in complex environments I bring a strong analytical foundation (PhD in Computer Science) combined with hands-on experience in healthcare, innovation and data products . This allows me to connect strategy, technology and real-world impact. I am particularly interested in how organizations can evolve towards data-driven operating models, where data is not an output, but a core asset for improving care, efficiency and decision making. My approach is pragmatic: start from real use cases, build the right foundations, and scale what works. email: [email protected] telephone: +32 497 38.51.24
