I combine experiential learning with gamification to make learning fun and effective. This ensures a holistic, playful and impactful approach to learning and development, adaptable to the learners' needs.

I believe in a world of equal rights and opportunities, where young people are active global citizens that embrace diversity with empathy and are ready to build an innovative, inclusive and sustainable future, today.

I've been working with the best international trainers and organisations for over a decade with that dream in mind, providing high-quality learning opportunities for youth, and preparing them for the 21st century’s demand in skills, knowledge and attitudes.

I multiply that impact by training trainers, facilitators, educators and youth workers, consulting (social) entrepreneurs, EdTech startups, and purpose-oriented businesses on how to best utilize experiential learning, games-based learning and gamification.

Experience creator specialised in excellent hospitality service. Immersive Guest Service is a combination of two things I’m very passionate about. On one side the love for an grappling immersive experience; a world building with a narrative you can get lost in whilst all your senses are immersed, and on the other side: an amazing guest service, which supports the immersive experience in a way that it already gets me excited before getting there, smoothly welcomes me into the narrative and leaves me with lasting memories which I want to share. Immersive Guest Service is the key to boost your guest journey by helping the guest be the hero in the story and therefore making it even more memorable, more personalised and simply PR worthy. After my studies International Hospitality Management I had the pleasure to work in multiple five star hotels in London and Amsterdam before I became a professional hospitality trainer. Having a creative mind I kept searching for ways to make each training more engaging, so triggered by gamification I opened Emmelocked Escape Room. Quickly I learned that combining games and learning was a hot commodity, as I was asked to build several on- and offline learning experiences for companies like Coolblue or KLM (creators united).
