Educational
leadership
Connecting a clear educational concept to the way people teach, learn and work together.
01 / About
Not interested in
standing still.
Education should do more than prepare people for the future. It should help them shape it.
I’m an educational leader at VISTA college, with a background in teaching English and ICT and a master’s in Educational Needs, focused on leadership.
I bring an educational perspective and an understanding of change to the same table. My focus: learning environments where students, teachers and partners grow together, supported by technology.
I value a professional culture where people can experiment, reflect and learn from each other. That’s where I want to make a difference.
The journey so far02 / What I bring

Does courage have an impact
on innovation?
Within the Practoraat Gepersonaliseerd Leren, I research the influence of courage — “lef” — on innovation success. This connects my interest in professional learning with the human side of change.
