Expressing gratitude | Margo de Kock | TEDxMaastricht
Managing Director at the Ronald McDonald house Maastricht and self-described storyteller, Margo de Kock, won the TEDxMaastricht 2016 Pitch Night with her compelling story about an encounter that changed her perspective on life. “Speaking at a TED event has always been on my bucket list. But I knew that I would never apply if I wouldn’t have a truly inspiring story that was worth sharing. This is it.” Margo’s compelling storytelling talent combined with her enthusiasm makes for a truly inspirational combination. A story everyone needs to hear on how seemingly small and random events can influence a lifetime.
Margo was born in Maastricht in 1969, graduated from her studies in youth welfare work in 1991. Working with sick children has been a common thread throughout most of Margo’s career. She has worked as a pedagogue and play-therapist at the AZM/MUMC+ for over 10 year including one year as the manager of the children’s television channel, creating television broadcast for- and together with sick children. Since 2005 she started working at the Ronald McDonald house Maastricht, where she aims to create a warm and safe home away from home, close to the hospital, for families with a severely ill child.
