Nancy knows what it is like to break through the glass ceiling. She was the first Black Miss Holland. She traveled the world as a model, living and working in New York City for 10 years. Later in life, she learned that life lessons lie in setbacks, and how to turn them into strength. Back in the Netherlands, she worked as a fashion and beauty editor for the multicultural fashion and beauty magazine ROOF. It was the first magazine where people of all nationalities were always featured. Afterward, she embarked on a spiritual quest. She became a Reiki Master, yoga teacher, aromatherapist and keynote speaker. Nancy provides women with insights and tools on how to step into their power. She does this through meditation, visualization, breath therapy and essential oils regarding what you want to achieve in life. Nancy believes that no matter what happens in your life, you are responsible for your own happiness.
Nancy's life was documented for the TV program Het mooiste meisje van de klas (The Most Beautiful Girl in the Class)
