The SENZ team

Gerard Kool
Gerard is responsible for all general aspects of SENZ Umbrellas. He hopelessly tries to create some sort of structure in the chaos that Gerwin and Philip manage to produce on a daily basis. Gerard is a walking encyclopedia and is the unofficial trivial pursuit world champion. Although his slim frame wouldn't reveal it, Gerard is a tremendous food processor who can systematically put very large amounts of food into his head. Gerard gets a thrill out of traveling and observing uncommon phenomena of nature, a characteristic that he's been able to fully exploit since working closely with Gerwin. Gerard possesses remarkably well-developed sleeping skills.
Gerwin Hoogendoorn
As the creative brain behind SENZ Umbrellas, Gerwin's daily job is to come up with crazy ideas and develop new products. Gerwin is the mad scientist of the SENZ Umbrellas crew and regularly needs to be brought down back to earth from his own chaotic little planet. He is the living proof that brilliance and craziness are not far apart from each other, which made him earn the additional function of part-time SENZ stuntman! Gerwin likes to believe that he's the best kept secret in the world when it comes to golf, basketball and surfing, although he doesn't look like your average surf-dude. He does however proudly rank among the best male seamstresses in the world, a remarkable skill that has helped him earn multiple "Employee of the month" honors.
Philip Hess
Philip does all commercial activities of SENZ Umbrellas, such as sales, acquisition and marketing. Although he's still in denial, Philip is an over-the-hill basketball player who believes he can still play. On the work floor, he has worked hard to master the art of making fun of his colleagues and is the proud owner of the prestigious "SENZ-Umbrellas-employee- with-the-worst-jokes-award". Philip is a world citizen and an underrated singer in the shower.
