No one has ever written a biography about me. My life is a game and I am born as a visionary, my
greatest strength is connceting people from various fields and interests to create something that is
meaningful for this world, especially for people with rheumatic and musculosceletal diseases. I like to
empower people and challenge and promote juniors. Questions are my most liked communication
medium. My skills for transformation increased significantly by the education as certified coach for
contextual coaching.
With an age of 68 years I am officially retired, and I am happy that I can now focus on research in SLE.
Next to working, I need some sporting (e.f. golfing) and feel good interacting with people around me.
I am happy to be a father of three adult kids and two grandchildren.
