Gezondheidscentrum De Beerze

What is your role and what gives you energy in your work?

Medical Pedicure. I love the social aspect of the job whilst being able to do something with my hands. Having a natter with people whilst looking after their feet makes the working day really enjoyable and time flies by!

What is your favourite quote, motto or tip to help people get through life more easily?

Good shoes and a new appointment with me every 6 to 8 weeks, haha

No, for me the glass is always half full! So I’m happy with what life and the body DO still have to offer :)

How can you tell from your work that it really suits you?

I enjoy a personal approach to my work, so I really like seeing regular patients over time and building a rapport with them. I also love knowing that I can make a difference and often relieve pain, so that people leave feeling on cloud nine! The fact that I can work with my hands makes this the ideal job for me; it’s a challenge every day to see what kind of feet I get to transform :D

What do you do outside of work that people might not expect of you?

I’m a dancer; I really enjoy being a pedicurist, but dancing is my true passion! I have 18 years’ experience in classical ballet, but I now practise four other styles. Salsa, bachata, ragga and lyrical. My aim is to learn and master as many dance styles as possible. I’ve got loads of energy, so after work and at the weekend I’m usually exercising, and dancing is my way of letting off steam!
