Home About us CEO

Aviation belongs to all of us. And that makes it so wonderful to work at Lelystad Airport. Since 2006, I have been working for the Royal Schiphol Group and have gained extensive experience in both commercial aspects and at airports themselves. Lelystad Airport is a beautiful working environment and I am proud of our airport and its potential.

My personal mission for Lelystad Airport is to facilitate the political decision-making process around its opening, together with all stakeholders, direct residents, and colleagues. Additionally, I aim to keep the current General Aviation operation safe and compliant. When I am not involved in aviation, I enjoy going to Switzerland to ski or hike. It is my favorite holiday destination. I also highly value spending time with my family.
