Let’s talk Digital Customer Experience

My name is Martijn van Deel and I am a father, husband, Christian, gamer, motorcyclist, traveler, soccer player, tennis player, and sometimes a runner. I was born in 1984 in Rotterdam, Netherlands, and currently living in the heart of this small country.

I have over 12 years of experience in Commerce and Digital Marketing. I designed and built Ecommerce platforms and Digital Customer Experience platforms with technology from SAP.

I am successful because I understand people and technology and can bring them together. I am a good listener and people feel heard and they repay me with their trust.
