What do you like the most about your job?
It is a cliché, yet the absolute truth that working with people gives so much energy and is therefore my number 1 motivator.
What does your average day look like?
I am usually woken up (stamped around my bed) at 7am by my 3 lovely children. Around 8.30 am, I drive my kids to school, after a hilarious 'rush to school' ritual. The peace and quiet at home (Corona, you know) returns around 8.45am, where I start my working day. Reading and responding e-mails, virtually interviewing future Wheelies, making presentations, doing 1-1’s, attend project meetings, writing marketing content and sales offers are my most recurring tasks during work. Usually, I try to pick up the kids around 5u30pm, where the 'rush to bed' ritual begins. The comforting sound of sleeping children provides time for leisure, which often translates into playing the silent piano, or guitar.

I installed goodreads a couple of years ago, but never used it until now. Goodreads is a book reviewing platform where you can track the books you read, wants to read or currently reading. Book nr 1 has already been devoured. 113 to go….
- Dansende beren
It's no secret that listening and playing music is a passion. Discovering new music is absolutely part of that. I mainly discover this new music through the website dansendeberen.be, where new reviews are posted every day. Not only from the big bands, but also from the local scene.
