About the mentor

I am a physician, entrepreneur, and mentor. I have expertise in brand marketing and copywriting. Throughout my life and my career, work-life balance has been a major priority for me. I value multiculturality, diversity, and inclusion. 

Professional background

I completed my medical degree in Leiden, The Netherlands whilst also obtaining a small-medium business certificate. Straight after graduation I launched my first business which provided me with a stable side income. Next to that I continued to enhance my clinical career in emergency medicine and now I have transitioned to general practice / family medicine.

Personal background

After 9 years in emergency medicine, I experienced a burnout. This left me jobless and without an income to pay my bills. I was happy that I could rely on my (passive) income streams that I had built up throughout the years. Being a medical entrepreneur is not easy, yet the satisfaction I get from finding solutions to every problem is worth the sweat. An ideal practice launch helps you find that fire again to do something you love and get back on your feet.
