After secondary school, I knew I wanted to do something in marketing. It made sense, then, that I chose to study Business Economics, specialising in marketing management. Whilst studying, I worked in online marketing at a sports shop, where I was introduced to various disciplines and discovered that my ambition lies with Google Advertising.

After completing my studies, I initially started out in sales at a web development company, helping entrepreneurs create results-driven websites. It was an educational period, but after a while I realised I missed online marketing. I knew I wanted to work at an online marketing agency so that I could work for a variety of clients across different sectors.

I knew of Traffic Today by reputation and happened to come across a vacancy that perfectly matched my requirements: Digital Marketer with a focus on Google Ads. The interviews at Traffic Today confirmed my initial impression; I left each one brimming with enthusiasm and energy. The culture of continuous learning, in which knowledge-sharing and professional development are central, really appealed to me.

In my spare time, I can often be found in Ommen or Zwolle, enjoying a drink on a terrace or a tasty bite to eat. I also enjoy cooking myself – but only Italian dishes. I’ve been a regular at the gym since I was 15, and I still train there four times a week. What’s more, I’m never one to turn down a party or festival now and then. I’m looking forward to not only growing professionally at Traffic Today , but also having lots of fun there!
