It might seem contradictory but I’m also very punctual. When I reach a goal, this will be the result of my carefully planned process. I think of these two competencies as my core skills.
More and more, I believe the people of a company become the most important ambassadors of your brand. New business opportunities arise when human capital is being managed carefully. I find this a very interesting field. Connecting people, getting to know their intrinsic motivation and helping to close the gap between employers and employees are just a few items I believe will become more important for companies who aim for a more sustainable way of working.
A healthy work/life balance is closely intertwined and should be a business pillar within the corporate culture. I have some great ideas on how your business can create added value to your employees with me as an in-house health consultant. Since the end of 2023 I'm a Orthomolecular therapist (see Education below).
Even more, there are a great number of opportunities for employers who wish to support their female employees from the moment they feel ready to start a family or for those who are already in the transition of motherhood. Try to think about the long term possibilities and return, rather than the short term vision of 9 months. I warmly recommend you to check out MOMCARE. I've been working on this project since 2021. I aim to create more awareness around birth trauma and the wide spectrum of health issues women suffer from because of it. Feel free to contact me if you're curious which opportunities I see for your business on this particular subject.
During my previous jobs I had the opportunity to work on new corporate branding projects. For me the challenge lies in creating new products or concepts within the brand identity guidelines. I'm very proud of my creative input and realizations for the full Look&Feel interior design of the Vascobelo Café-Brasseries as well as the total product design of the new Vascobelo Cups sleeves & Vascobelo Chocolates.
Building a brand, making it bigger and more solid, I love being part of this essential business area. Curious to some of these projects? Let's meet for a cappuccino & I can tell you all about them!
I start every day with an open mind and positive appearance. I try to infect people with my enthusiasm. During my day I love to inspire people and make them feel heard. I'm capable of stimulating other to proudly speak up and helping them to think more creatively.
For me, time management is key and I prefer working as efficiently as possible. I keep my focus on the goal but during these past years I have also learnt that plans, processes and goals can change along the way. Therefore I developed other strengths such as being more flexible and open minded for other alternative ways of working and creating adjusted goals.
I believe my communication skills are one of my main strengths. I like to know the facts, I will ask questions if necessary and I reinforce me verbal communication with non verbal body language. I value honest communication and I'm genuinely interested in someone else's story.
Together we can achieve more. I experienced this while practicing field hockey at top level in my early twenties. We became Champions of Belgium 3 times and until this day I'm still very proud of those achievements. In my opinion the same goes for the workplace. My motto is "many hands make light work". However, I also enjoy working on my own. It's my moment to fully focus or to recharge my batteries. I'm a strong believer of continuous learning, both on professional skills as wel as on personal development.
At Atelier Aesthetics, my focus has shifted from working on client projects to deepening my own creative vision. My passion lies in distilling a brand’s essence to its purest form. In a digital world full of noise, I still believe less is more. While I no longer take on freelance work, I remain devoted to exploring how brands can stand out authentically and connect with their audience in a deep, meaningful way.
