My values

Openness & Curiosity

Staying curious takes you much further than maintaining a fixed and limiting mindset. It’s important for me to ask questions and remain open to suggestions and changes. I strive to stay open and curious, seeing myself as a perpetual student.

Teamwork & Involvment

In any project we tackle together, I am committed to giving (more than) 100%, and I hope to see you contribute your fair share. It always takes two to tango, and I believe our collaborative efforts will lead to outstanding results.

Kindness & Respect

No matter what happens, I believe it's crucial to remain kind, and polite, and treat each other with respect. As humans, we make mistakes, and have tough days, and you never know what someone might be going through.

Humor & Joy

It’s s crucial to always find some joy in what we are doing. A project or task can be difficult, it can be tough but for me, it’s important to be able to have a good laugh no matter what. It helps. And trust me, you’ll hear my laughing from the end of the corridor.

Equality & Diversity

I welcome individuals of any gender, race, sexual orientation, age, or abilities—you are all more than welcome here, and I would love to collaborate with you. I also recognize the challenges that minorities may encounter, and I am supportive of alternative pricing for those in need. Please feel free to reach out.

Expertise & Quality

I understand my role, and I trust that you understand yours. Our collaboration is rooted in this mutual trust. Count on me to be honest—if I'm unsure about something, I'll let you know! My goal is always to strive for the highest quality, and I'll encourage you to do the same.
