From manual process torunning automation

Manual processes cost practices their time; calls nobody picks up cost them clients. I automate those processes with AI receptionists, voice assistants and custom software, for organisations that don't hand over their data lightly: law, notary, accountancy and healthcare. Data stays in-house, on your own infrastructure.

My story doesn't start behind a laptop, but on the factory floor, at Nedcar and O-I Manufacturing. That's where I saw first-hand how much time is lost to manual processes. So I taught myself to code: first to make my own work more efficient, then to build complete systems that actually move companies forward.

I've since worked with industrial automation (Beckhoff PLC), enterprise systems (ERP, BI), AI voice applications, and full-stack web platforms. From the factory hall to the cloud, I understand the whole chain.

In 2026 I made it official: Kerris ICT is registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce and kerrisict.nl is live in Dutch, English, German and French, because the Maastricht–Aachen–Liège region is naturally cross-border.

I find manual, broken processes and I build software to fix them.
