As the former CEO of Peleman Industries for North and South America, I made my mark in the family company by guiding the organization in developing world-renowned products for consumer and retail markets, bringing in brands such as Apple, Fuji, Kodak, Target, Walgreens, and Walmart.

As CEO, I made it my mission to reform the IT department by implementing the latest security levels. For example, with the GSA contract, I recognized the security implications required for the US government and customers such as Apple and Walgreens. This inspired me to go back to school and earn an MIT degree in cybersecurity, blockchain, IOTS, and AI.

I have earned numerous distinctions as a serial entrepreneur, including being named three times on the Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Private Companies in America list. She also earned three Pacesetter Awards as one of the fastest-growing businesses in metro Atlanta.

Since the age of nine, my dream was to live in the United States, and that became a reality in 1998 after earning my master’s degree in law from KUL and VUB.
