👋
@433 . End of an era. What a ride these past six years have been.
From day one, it was all about building the biggest football community in the world. Today, 433 is creating content across the globe, on a plane almost every day.
I’ve been incredibly fortunate to check off some major bucket list moments:
🏟️ Playing football at Camp Nou, a childhood dream turned reality.
📖 Contributing to a book (maybe one day, I’ll write my own, sharing stories like my journey with Juriaan Singels, the incredible kid with autism I’ve been supporting for the past 10 years).
🎵 Working on music projects, including 433’s Tomorrow with Tiësto.
✈️ Traveling the world, sharing the 433 story, and collaborating on unforgettable projects with the greatest leagues, clubs, and brands. (Thanks to all amazing partners!!)
⚽ Experiencing the EUROs and World Cup from the front row, watching our young talents thrive and grow at an incredible pace.
But more than anything, what I’ve loved most is building. Not just the brand and company, but also the teams. Seeing people step out of their comfort zones and evolve. When I started, we kicked things off with a 24-hour livestream, instantly forging connections and giving talented people the platform to become leaders. Most of them are still with the company, in great leadership positions. This makes me proud :)
Now, almost six years later, it’s time for me to move on.
A new rollercoaster adventure awaits 🎢
A huge thank you to the founders
@ralphdegeus (thanks for bringing me in),
@rogierdeelstra (for trusting me with the keys to your “house”),
@demydezeeuw (for all the creative ideas, best mindset and starting the 433 studios) and
@juulmanders (for everything we’ve done together over the past six years).
I’m insanely grateful I’ve met so many incredible people. To everyone who played a role in my time at 433 - colleagues, partners, and friends - thank you!! 💛
I’ll be back soon with an update on my next adventure 😍
