About me

I started my career at Utrecht University in 1989 at the Faculty of Social Science. In 1996 I joined Prof. dr. Hans Adriaansens, founding Dean of UCU & UCR, to build University College Utrecht, who welcomed its very first students in September 1998. I worked as admissions officer at UCU for more than 10 year. I moved to Middelburg in the summer of 2008 to join University College Roosevelt, which was founded in 2004. I was the Head of the Education & Student Office and have acted as the Board Secretary to the Board of Examiners. Since August 2016 I am appointed as the Secretary to the UCR Board as well and since 2023 I’m focusing on that. I also participate in the RISC team (Roosevelt Individual Student Cases).
