YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

I have always been fascinated by the human voice and all its possibilities. I started my business in the early ’90s as a Voice Expert in voice disorders. Many years of experience have helped me to develop my own style and I have established myself as a successful Muse in the field of the great speakers.

Today I work at The House of Silence as a Public Speaking Coach & Executive Voice Expert with (senior) executives in highly tailored, individual coaching relationships. It’s all about Modern Leadership Development. I guide them through discovering and becoming aware of their strengths and weaknesses in public speaking so that they gain more confidence, create more clarity, more impact and build credibility.

As a Voice and Speaker Muse I also contribute to TEDxInsead, TEDxAmstelveen, TEDxIEMadrid and the International Masterclass Learning & Development Leadership 2017, 2018, 2019 & 2020 at Nyenrode Business University in the Netherlands. Furthermore, I contributed as a co-author to two chapters on ‘Mindful voice techniques’ and ‘Effective presentation tips and tricks’ in a book and practical toolkit on developing ‘Authentic Professional Confidence Through Emotional Flexibility’ that just has been released. In 2020 I organized, under license of TED, the first TEDxWassenaar ‘Find Your Voice’ event, where I guided all the 8 speakers personally in creating and delivering their TEDtalk on the red dot. A skill for life.

I believe that through finding and knowing your strengths and weaknesses in public speaking, you as a human being will be able to unlock your full modern leadership potential. By improving the way your message comes across, you gain a skill for life with impact!
