Since my first attendance at an OWASP conference, back in 2006 in Leuven, Belgium, I was hooked by OWASP.

In 2007 I joined the OWASP Netherlands Chapter Board and got involved in several OWASP projects. When Committees first started after the Summit in 2008, I was Co-Chair of the Education Committee. In 2011, I began my global community engagement as a co-organizer of the OWASP Summit in 2011.

I believe that OWASP is about community! I have and continue to work to introduce OWASP to professionals, students, and developers. Here are a few of my engagements over the past decade.

• I serve as OWASP Netherlands chapter leader.
• I am co-chair of the annual OWASP beNeLux-Day
• I have been involved in every AppSec-Eu since 2012
• I introduced the University Challenges at the AppSec conferences in Europe
• Chair of the AppSec-Eu 2015 in Amsterdam
• Co-Chair of the training selection committee for this years AppSec-Eu in Rome
• Currently chairing the program committee for next years AppSec-Eu in Belfast

In the past, as I will do in the future, I represent OWASP at various security, developer and testing conferences with an OWASP booth and presentations (among others):

• BlackHat Europe, 2012 to 2015
• HITB (Hack in The Box) Amsterdam, 2010 to 2016 and HITB KL 2013
• FOSSDEM
• Hackivity 2015
• The NCSC conferences in the Netherlands
• Security-congress.nl
• CCC Camp 2011
• OHM 2013, SHA 2017
• OWASP local conferences:
  • OWASP IBWAS
  • OWASP Germany
  • OWASP India
  • OWASP Israel
  • OWASP Romania
  • OWASP Poland with Confidence
  • OWASP Goteborg

I was invited and approved to serve as the compliance officer for the OWASP Foundation in 2014 and asked to continue this position until I stepped down at the end of 2015. My current focus is developer outreach, the OWASP Security Knowledge Framework (SKF) project and supporting new chapters. I also work to connect leaders so they can collaborate on the best practices and improve the quality on the OWASP projects. Outside of OWASP, I support IAMTHECAVALRY, have been involved in working groups for the European Commission as FOSSA, AITOI and the Scientific Advice Mechanism (SAM), and am guest lecturer at Universities.
