Embark on a journey of innovation and progress with BavoCo. In the intricate tapestry of my professional journey, I’ve seamlessly traversed the realms of corporate giants, groundbreaking startups, and nimble SMEs, utilizing both the dexterity of my hands and the prowess of my intellect.
Entrepreneurial Excellence: Managing Startups and Guiding Innovations Across Industries
Armed with an indomitable go-getter attitude, I managed two startups (smart fishing equipment manufacturing and surgical medical device) concurrently while immersed in a full-time consultant role – a testament to my unwavering commitment and ability to prioritize work in a ceaseless pursuit of excellence. Unrestricted by conventional working hours, I willingly delve into projects when the pursuit of passion demands it.
As an Innovation Consultant, my canvas has been the corporate landscape, advising entities across diverse industries, including esteemed names such as Bosch, Borealis, ABInbev, Henkel, and DEME, among others. My forte lies in adaptability and an innate understanding of intricacies, making me adept at navigating complexities and crafting ingenious solutions.
Strategic Visionary: Championing Bootstrapping Principles and Facilitating Collaborative Solutions
A fervent advocate of Bootstrapping principles, I ardently believe in the philosophy of failing fast and cheap, employing robust validation methods before embarking on development and launch initiatives. My role as a Coach and Workshop Facilitator has seen me eloquently pitch ideas, emphasizing the importance of defining risks and formulating effective mitigation strategies.
Connecting dots and networking effortlessly form the cornerstone of my skill set.

My entrepreneurial spirit extends to various side hustles spanning art, life coaching, sustainable community & eco-building, and more. Driven by an insatiable desire for self-development, I am perennially seeking feedback to refine and enhance my capabilities.
Away from the boardroom, I am an ardent sports enthusiast, having engaged in a myriad of activities throughout my life – skiing, (kite) surfing, football, calisthenics, gymnastics, Thai boxing, and an unwavering passion for nature and hiking.
The wanderlust in my genes has manifested in global travel and living abroad for the last two years. My ability to effortlessly connect with diverse individuals and a broad field of interest fuels my continuous exploration of the world and its possibilities.
