I've been working in Education across the EIT Community since 2012, and am curious to see where we can connect across the spectrum

About me

I've been working with the EIT Food Education team since 2018, building up our Education portfolio. Part of that is also the close collaboration with EIT and other KICs around common themes like education, which I am leading within EIT Food Education.

I've been working in this environment for more than a decade now, having joined EITF from EIT InnoEnergy, and representing the KICs in the Advisory Board of ERA-Learn since 2024.

Coming from a sustainability/global change background, I'm generally working towards leaving this planet (hopefully) better than we found it - through collaboration, networking, partnerships, up/reskilling and cross-pollination.

My organisation

EIT Food Education - We are attracting, developing and empowering bright minds to lead the transformation of the food system into an innovative sector that produces healthy and sustainable food, and is trusted by society.
