I developed this framework during my Master’s in Risk Management at the University of Twente.
With a background in quality management, HSE, and organisational improvement, I combine practical experience with academic insight. I believe organisations thrive when they align performance with integrity. I am looking to contribute to organizations that want to grow on the basis of trust, resilience, and ethical performance.
