For over 20 years, I have been helping people and organizations create more energy, resilience and human connection through the power of laughter. Today, I work with companies, conferences and events to boost team energy, reduce stress and strengthen workplace wellbeing through interactive workshops, energizers and keynote experiences. Since 2006, I have guided more than 35,000 participants across corporate, educational and public sectors in Belgium and the Netherlands. You may know me from international campaigns such as Coca-Cola's Happiness Starts with a Smile, as well as various TV, radio and media appearances. Yet my work goes beyond laughter alone: I help organizations create environments where people feel connected, engaged and energized. As founder of Smile at Work™ and co-founder of Preventiedag™, I combine wellbeing, team connection and prevention into practical experiences that create both immediate impact and lasting results. Trusted by organizations including Coca-Cola, Nike, Microsoft, Unilever, IKEA and Booking.com. Based in Belgium. Active across Belgium and the Netherlands. Expanding internationally. Every Smile Counts.
For 20 years, Smile at Work™ has been bringing laughter, energy and connection into companies and events. I design and deliver interactive laughter workshops, energizers and keynote sessions that help teams reduce stress, strengthen connection and increase wellbeing at work. My work is used in companies, HR programs, conferences and international events.
