Background
“Passion makes the world go round.” Well, in my world it really does. On a professional level I’m passionate about enterprise architecture, about doing the right thing in the right way.
In 2011, at the age of 37, I returned to full time studying at the University of Leuven to pursue formal education in embedded systems. This hardware world became a very important counter-part to my interest in software.
Beyond computers, my family and personal interests complete the picture of my world. This website contains information at various levels—mostly notes, sometimes in-depth introductions.
