“I help people across the globe unlock their full potential by a good night sleep”
I am a sleep neuroscientist, adjunct professor at IE Business School in Madrid, lecturer at St. Gallen Business School and IMD Business School, and internationally recognized authority on sleep. Thrive Global has named me as one of the top 5 sleep experts in the world. I advise corporations around the globe on sleep, performance, and well-being. I support CEOs and decision-makers worldwide to help them get the best out of themselves, their team members, and their organizations. Watch a 2-minute introductory video here.
I studied in Amsterdam, did follow-up research at Harvard Medical School, and completed my Ph.D. at UC Berkeley, after which I started using my knowledge at McKinsey & Company, where I learned to educate people on what to ACTUALLY do.
Since 2016, I have advised the leadership of dozens of globally operating companies on implementing sleep in their people’s strategy. I have engaged directly with over 150,000 people through nearly 1,000 sleep Masterclasses.
Over the years, I developed content in various formats to help increase the level of impact. How-to guides can accompany masterclasses and people can complete challenges or follow online video courses to establish healthy (sleep) habits.
In today’s fast-paced world, the importance of sleep is often overlooked. Many people believe that working harder and longer will lead to success, but what if I told you that the key to unlocking your full potential is as simple as getting a good night’s sleep?
Sleep is the foundation of our health and (peak) performance, so I dedicated my life to inspiring others to optimize their sleep patterns.

In order to provide relevant content that creates an impact, I assess your employees and your current well-being and performance strategy. We jointly determine which aspects of the world of sleep should be put forward to your workforce and which format is most likely to create sustainable results.
Through Masterclasses, courses, and e-learning modules, awareness is raised on the importance of sleep, and materials are delivered for each individual to implement a behavior change. No person is the same, so there are many possibilities to personalize the content that is brought forward.
After being equipped with the science-based knowledge to optimize their sleep, people get the the necessary tools in order to start making behavior changes.
From there on out, they’ll be able to optimize their performance and make the best of every aspect of their (working) life!
