Offering consulting services and tailored scientific and strategic guidance for businesses, industries, advocacy groups and the public sector, including: 

  • sound scientific advice on questions regarding plastic and chemicals to promote sustainability

Research

With 25 years of experience and expertise, I provide comprehensive scientific research, reviews, expert guidance, desk studies, and a clear interpretation of complex scientific information to my clients. Can be combined with consulting services.

Keynotes, public speaking

Authentic, thought-provoking and engaging talks about plastic, chemicals, the environment and us.

Always geared to the people in the room, whether it's a business event, researcher round table, public stakeholder conference, panel, or children's science talk. Often sharing knowledge and a vision of what we can do with that knowledge.

We’ll begin by discussing the goals of your event, allowing me to craft a compelling storyline that complements those goals and connects with your audience.

English (native) or Dutch (almost accentless!). List of past talks here.

Writing

Clear and impactful scientific and technical writing, communications, and articles for broad audiences about subjects that matter.

Writing for my peers since my first scientific articles were published back in 1999, I am no stranger to technical jargon and documenting complex scientific processes. What I discovered at the science-policy interface and through teaching is the enjoyment of making complex science topics interesting and understandable to nonexperts.
