Ben Kranen
WHO I am
My name is Bernard Kranen, everybody knows me as Ben. I was born in the 1960s in the Netherlands, and I grew up in a harmonious and loving family. I was always challenged and stimulated to get the best out of me, without any pressure from my parents.
I also learned about the fragility of life at a young age. My sister died of cancer when she was 18 years old. I was 16. That left a lifelong scar, but at the same time helped me to take life a bit more easily, and not let daily problems and setbacks get in the way of enjoying life.
After university graduation, I held positions in the Netherlands and Switzerland before moving over to Singapore.
