Owner at Opentrail Internet Marketing
Amsterdam Area, Netherlands
My goal is to work with a team of connected inspiring people from different backgrounds with a can do it, just do it attitude. Where change is the only constant in an abundance of energy and whos goal is for all: to make a difference.
I have a passion for meeting, creating, using and admiring simple, elegant and beautiful things be that using technology or just plain creativity.
I am open and embrace any developing or pioneering technology where I can see that will provide business innovation and difference.
I think and act vertically from Strategic, Tactical and Operational filling a variety of multi-disciplinary roles interacting with people who work on a horizontal level. I get the most fun, feedback and sense of adventure advising on creative product development and strategy - pushing the boundaries, thinking out of the box, taking calculated risks and persistently push for concrete results. Entrepreneurial flair. Thats how we make leap frog advancements.
Starting early out I have had the opportunity to take part over the last 30 years in technology advancements since the early home computing days, through distributed client/server to todays multi layered service orientated, space based and social networked architectures.
I believe that the road to success through agility is timing, design, quality and the ability to think in terms of smart questions rather than following answers. People need to be inspired, see results fast, exchange energy and feedback to keep them actively engaged. It helps keep focus whilst being open to change.
Focus on using technology to bring innovative consumer products to market, rich and connected eCommerce environments that utilise space based and social network architectures reaching people through different mediums, using rich colours and attractive designs.
