Belgian native Dutch speaker, graduated as a chemist.
Followed my passion for automation, software and computers and turned to the IT sector and evolved to a data integration specialist due to self study and persistence.

Working as a software developer in several branches, I gained a great expertise in
object oriented thinking and development.
Doing the full cycle of software development from analysis, implementation, support and project management in combination with a strong empathy I positioned myself as a technical expert on mainly Microsoft technologies bridging into the needs of the business and the users.

Working on several projects as a database specialist I focused on SQL server and gained expertise on all levels in this environment, like DTS, SSIS, Database tuning, linked servers and replication.

Since Microsoft became a strong role player in the BI domain, I keep on focusing on the complete MS BI Tool set Integration Services (SSIS/ETL), Analysis Services (SSAS/OLAP/Cubes), Reporting Services (SSRS) and SharePoint (MOSS).

To give the best service and advice, I keep my vision wide on Business Intelligence.
Currently exploring Cognos, BO and in memory technologies like Qlikview and Targit.

A quick learner, with strong analytical and interpersonal skills, who keeps quality high on his list and stands for working and usable solutions.
