Getogen sinds 1971 in Helmond. Heb een vriendin, maar woon niet samen. Mijn twee volwassen kinderen hebben ervoor gezorgd dat ik een trotse opa ben van twee kleinzonen en een kleindochter.<br><br>Ik heb in verschillende wijken in Helmond gewoond (de Pronto, Helmond-Noord en Mierlo-Hout). Op dit moment woon ik in &#8216;t Haagje, een van Helmonds oudste wijken, die de afgelopen jaren mooi gerenoveerd is en waar heel veel culturen samenleven en wonen. Je proeft op sommige plekken het verleden van Helmond. Honderden jaren geleden werd hier het Oude Huys gevestigd, de voorloper van het huidige kasteel van Helmond.<br><br>In de wijk waar ik nu woon ben ik dagelijks getuige van de specifieke uitdagingen waar Helmond mee te maken heeft. In D66 herken ik het meeste van waar ik graag mijn aandacht op richt. Als sociaal -liberale partij maakt D66 Helmond al jaren het verschil. Sinds 2018 doen wij dat als coalitiepartij met een wethouder en een actieve fractie bestaande uit onze raadsleden, burger commissieleden en fractie ondersteuner. <br><br>Ikzelf ben na twee periodes als bestuursvoorzitter, nu algemeen bestuurslid en ben kandidaat voor de Gemeenteraad in 2026.\t<\/p>\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\t  <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1465,"featured_media":1601,"menu_order":8,"template":"","labels":[],"search-tags":[26],"division-tags":[],"class_list":["post-1173","people-type","type-people-type","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","search-tags-lokaal"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>D66 Helmond &#8212;
