Where I am
Based in Amsterdam. Working independently as a consultant — mostly with organisations navigating growth, restructures, or the messy middle of culture change.
A good chunk of this year has been spent building: shipping small tools, learning to think in systems, and getting more comfortable at the infrastructure layer.
What I'm working on
- Gestalter Suite — a set of tools for OD practitioners who want to bring Gestalt principles into their practice without a PhD in theory
- This portfolio — experimenting with what a learning log in public actually feels like
- A newsletter archive that treats past writing as something worth finding again
What I'm reading
- The Timeless Way of Building — Christopher Alexander. Slow going, in the best way.
- Working in Public — Nadia Eghbal. Thinking about what it means to build things openly.
- A lot of writing about AI and labour. No single source — more like a fog of takes I'm trying to see through.
What's on my mind
The gap between knowing something intellectually and actually embodying it. I've been a practitioner long enough to know the theory — the harder work is noticing when I'm not living it.
Also: what does craft mean when the tools do more? I don't have a clean answer. But I think the question is worth sitting with rather than resolving too quickly.
