About
Informatiebeveiliging is voor mij meer dan alleen compliance; het is de fundering van een gezonde bedrijfsvoering. Ik ben beschikbaar voor een nieuwe uitdaging als CISO of Information Security Officer (ISO).
Wat mij kenmerkt is de combinatie van strategisch inzicht en executiekracht. Ik help organisaties niet alleen met het opstellen van een waterdichte security-strategie, maar zorg ook voor de daadwerkelijke implementatie en uitvoering ervan. Ik ben een proactieve sparringpartner die graag meedenkt over hoe beveiliging de business kan versterken in plaats van vertragen.
Mijn expertise wordt onderbouwd door een brede set aan certificeringen, waaronder:
Management & Risk: CISSP, CISM, CRISC
Technisch: OSCP (Offensive Security Certified Professional)
Compliance: ISO 27001
Naast mijn werk is technologie ook mijn passie. Ik verdiep mij graag in ontwikkelingen rondom AI, Bitcoin en host thuis mijn eigen serverinfrastructuur om 'hands-on' te blijven met de nieuwste technieken.

To me, information security is more than just compliance; it is the foundation of a resilient business. Starting January 1st, 2026, I will be available for a new challenge as a CISO or Information Security Officer (ISO).
What sets me apart is the combination of strategic insight and the ability to execute. I assist organizations not only in defining a robust security strategy but also in driving its actual implementation and day-to-day execution. I act as a proactive partner, always focusing on how security can enable the business rather than slow it down.
My expertise is backed by a comprehensive set of certifications, including:
Management & Risk: CISSP, CISM, CRISC
Technical: OSCP (Offensive Security Certified Professional)
Compliance: ISO 27001 Lead Implementer / Auditor
Beyond my professional role, technology is my true passion. I actively follow developments around AI, within the Bitcoin ecosystem, and run my own server infrastructure at home to remain hands-on with the latest technologies.
