Born and raised in the Netherlands, I’m a woman shaped by contrast—grounded in a fulfilling career, yet drawn to elegance, intimacy, and life’s finer pleasures. My world is layered: poised between structure and spontaneity, refinement and exploration, serenity and sensation.
Outside of my professional life, I’m deeply devoted to the things that ignite the senses. Discovering restaurants is almost an art form to me—whether it’s an unassuming trattoria tucked into a narrow Roman alley, a tasting menu in Barcelona that dances across the palate, or warm, fragrant dishes savoured by candlelight in Marrakesh after wandering through its endless souks. Food, for me, is more than nourishment. It’s ritual. Connection. Pleasure shared slowly.
