I am an entrepreneur and writer, I live in Heerenveen, the Netherlands. After university, I started working as a Business Consultant and soon found myself writing my first book about starting a business as a freelancer. Because I wanted to be a consultant with practical experience, I started my own part-time business, a legal publishing company. The business went well, and I sold it in 1998 to Kluwer International Publishers.

During the next three years, I worked as the main editor and publisher of Watersport Magazine, the largest boating magazine in the Netherlands with a circulation of over 120.000 copies. I continued working in this market with my own publishing company and founded the IJsselmeer Krant, Watersport in Bedrijf, and the Watersport Krant. The latter was the most successful, with a controlled circulation of 250.000 copies. After publishing these titles for over eight years, I sold them to NDC Media Group.

After selling the titles, I focused more on writing. I worked on several projects as the editor and writer. You can find them on the page timeline.

Currently, I am working on several writing projects. You can read about them on the page current projects. All details about my career can be found on the page timeline.
