What is your background?

MSc in aerospace engineering Delft University of Technology and in parallel I studied aviation law and air transport economics. I worked at several European aerospace companies including Airbus, BAE Systems, TenCate/Toray Advanced Composites before moving into sustainable plastics for mobility and consumer markets.

Why is Aethos important to you?

In aerospace, today’s spotlight is firmly focused on sustainability. The industry must deliver noticeable results, show engagement and sometimes even completely rethink materials and ways of working. Aethos is doing just that by inspiring and endorsing communities around the world to recycle aircraft materials with innovative solutions. At Aethos together we can make the difference and contribute to the acceleration of aerospace sustainability.

What goal do you want to reach?

10 years from now, aerospace to be best in class on sustainability amongst its mobility peers. Recycling is a key brick to achieve that.

What is funny to know about you?

I like South America, especially Brazil.
