Description

As a strategic PR and communications consultant, I work for international and Dutch technology companies, primarily those in the cloud, hosting, and data center sector. I help these organizations strengthen their positioning, visibility, and reputation in competitive B2B markets. My focus is on developing well-thought-out communications strategies, distinctive brand stories, and content that demonstrably contributes to business results.

I work both strategically, in direct consultation with owners and management, and operationally, in close collaboration with marketing teams. My strength lies in developing strong brand stories and translating complex B2B technology into clear, relevant content that responds to concrete business challenges, in both Dutch and English.

From strategy to execution, I guide organizations through the full spectrum of technology PR and corporate communications. My experience includes content strategy, press releases, media relations, crisis communications, white papers, customer case studies, sales materials, opinion pieces, website content, and advertorials. I ensure that communications are not only strong in terms of content, but also contribute to positioning, visibility, and lead generation.

My approach has been shaped in part by my background in journalism. I am the founder and editor-in-chief of the international news magazine HostingJournalist.com, a platform focused on the cloud, hosting, and data center sector. In the past, I worked as a journalist for IT trade magazines Computer Reseller News and Computable, and for general media such as daily newspaper the Algemeen Dagblad and marketing expert magazine Tijdschrift voor Marketing.
