Hi, I'm Janet.  I help companies draw their future. With hands-on workshops and visual storyboarding, I work alongside teams to make their goals visible –aligning people, sparking motivation, and turning strategy into action.

My roots are in Silicon Valley, where I lived the full spectrum of startup / scaleup life:  I worked for three startups:  one that went public, one that was acquired by eBay/PayPal, and one that crashed and burned. Today,  I live in Amsterdam where I work with scale-up founders,  product teams, and global organizations to unlock scaling issues with creativity and clarity.
