🌏Growing up as a Third-Culture Kid has provided me with a unique and expansive outlook on life, which has also played a pivotal role in shaping the career path I have chosen.

​

⚜️ I’m passionate about what I do, and I enjoy approaching people-related challenges with an innovative mindset.

​

🎇 I'm interested in various topics, including Learning & Development, leveraging data-driven insights, enhancing employee experience, fostering creativity and innovation, driving process improvements, and exploring the medium of art and design.

​

In my work experience of 7+ years I’ve learned :  
🔸The importance of continuous learning for all!
🔸Need for humanising the workplace by focusing on well-being and empowerment 
🔸The gift of ‘Listening to Understand’
🔸Building a sense of community and a safe space for communication and exchange of ideas
🔸Importance of Business Development and sustainability
🔸Facilitating change through innovation, use of data, creativity and community engagement

​

This is what I love to do!

​

Learning something new each day, and sharing it as I go along.

Testimonials

I worked with Vanessa while she did a consultancy/research assignment at Vanderlande. I got to know her as a person that is passionate about the field of learning, especially learning in complex organizations. She has an analytic nature and has strong communication skills. Because of her professional and discrete attitude, I felt very comfortable to let her conduct interviews in the organization independantly. Vanessa and the team delivered a very insightful and usable report.
