1 : 1 Coaching
I started doing 1-1 consulting sessions, next to the bigger projects at Kookinspiratie.
A sparring session with an external expert is super effective for moving forward when things get stuck.
My first clients are cooking startups and a restaurant owner and I am looking forward to support more clients on a regular base.

Hospitality, Content, & Community
Hospitality, Content, & Community
For a year I have worked on a restaurant platform, providing support to independent restaurateurs, guiding them to use digital tools, keeping them informed about Covid-19 and sharing tips and tricks to deal with the huge challenges restaurants currently have.
This role consists of product owner work, content management and a bit of marketing. I have been setting up the content production process single-handedly and managing a small team of external contributors, copy-writer and back-end support. This restaurant blog section can be viewed on DISH.co, the platform by Hospitality Digital, which is a METRO company.

Working on a Cooking - App for Philips
Working on a Cooking - App for Philips
Since January, I am working for Philips kitchen appliances again, to support the NutriU - App, for the Airfyer. It is fantastic to work with this appliance again, the product I know so well from the time when I worked closely with development and marketing to make this appliance locally relevant and looking at ways to improve the product from a culinary angle.
Like most of my projects, the work goes beyond 'just' developing and styling recipes, I have set up the content workflow, I am managing the global culinary content and the app-community in Germany.
Next to this project, I continue to be available for other clients to inspire, advise, or co-create wonderful food and cooking related products and services.

About me & Kookinspiratie
I am an industrial designer focused on creating consumer products. I specialised in the domain of cooking during university, when I worked in a restaurant and obtained my cooking degree. Since that moment, 14 years ago, I started focusing mainly on food and cooking related projects.
The design engineering background thought me all about fabrication, materials, marketing, consumer research and art. Moreover, we are trained to be "integral design professionals" we switch well between marketing and research & development teams, understanding the big picture, the objectives as well deep diving into the content, in my case that is food.
My goal is to connect innovation with the end user, by making sure that new products are actually meeting the needs of the end user. So far I have created unique restaurant and catering concepts, my recipe are shipped with with various cooking appliances all over the world; I have created menu's of a food box company and worked out the menu structure of a food delivery company in Berlin. In the supermarket you can buy cheese with my flavour combinations, I provided inspiration to companies like Heineken and Old Amsterdam. I am looking forward to collaborate with many more exciting people, brands and companies to create meaningful products and services.
