chapter lead – mobile at rtl
about
i am a chapter lead for the mobile squad and an ios developer at rtl, where i am privileged to learn and grow daily. in my free time, i love playing sports like badminton and tennis, expressing myself through music on the violin, and reading books. i am proud to be a woman among many phenomenal women who are transforming the world.
what advice would you give to your younger self?
i would urge my younger self to recognize her worth and treat herself with kindness, compassion, and respect. embrace her unique strengths, skills, and talents, and use them to pursue her passions and purpose. i would also remind her that being a woman is not a limitation, and that she can achieve anything that she puts her mind to with hard work, determination, and courage just like anyone else in this world.
rtl
for years, gender representation is one of the priorities within rtl nederland. as one of the biggest media-organisations of our country, we are convinced that it is our responsiblity to represent women in all functions and showcase our female role models for their unique talents and drive: to our colleagues as well as to the broader public. we take this responsibility very seriously and are making good progress, but we can always improve. both on screen and behind the scenes. we see it as a privilige to affirm girls and women how crucial their place is in society and in our company.
