Dion has always enjoyed creating living spaces and homes. His love of architecture and getting outdoors motivate him every day as he heads the office in Crete. After joining the company in 2015, he has also been leading digital change at Elxis, while keeping intact its human touch. With studies in new media and digital culture he has worked in online marketing and restaurant management. Juggling all these different elements is easy for Dion, who is half-Greek, half-Dutch. He has experienced the challenges and opportunities that cultural differences present and is aware of the importance of explaining to northern European clients what Greece is all about and how to make the most of the country’s enormous beauty. He speaks Dutch, English and Greek.

In his time off he enjoys hiking, bike riding and hitting the water in any possible way. When it comes to homes, it is quite simple, really. “It is all about the garden,” he says.
