After achieving her bachelor’s degree as a teacher in PHE (2001) Mirjam started her career in the Dutch army as a warrant officer and physical trainer. After some years she left the army and became a teacher, mentor and developer on a job education school. Her focus moved from teaching to mentoring and supporting children that needed extra help. After getting her bachelor’s degree in Applied psychology, she went on as a full time counselor for students with behavioral challenges, development disorders, and autism.
