Gert is currently working as an Agile Coach at Spotify in Stockholm, Sweden. He has a background in various industries such as programming, graphic design and education. Gaining exposure to such varied fields has enriched his abilities as an Agile Coach, enabling him to work well within diverse contexts. His recent interests are working with teams outside of Technology such as those within Internal Audit, Finance, Business Strategy; departments that may not readily have access to Agile Coaching.

Having relocated from South Africa and being an avid fly fisherman, Gert is usually standing in a river or hiking through forests in his spare time.
