I am Originally from Curaçao - a multicultural island in the Caribbean – and quite well-known for those within the iGaming industry.
Coming from such a tiny pearl in the Caribbean, I’ve always enjoyed getting to know new cultures by travelling and connecting with others. With a background in hospitality as a tour guide and then in the iGaming industry as an HR professional with a specialization in talent acquisition, it was natural to dive deeper into recruitment.
I am looking forward to continuing this journey as it’s always rewarding contributing to one’s professional career.
