Born in Westkapelle, he was a member of the municipal council of Middelburg between 1953 and 1962, serving as an alderman in his final four years. He joined the Provincial Council of Zeeland in 1958 and the Provincial Executive of Zeeland in 1962. He became a member of the Senate on 20 September 1977, and he left his provincial positions the following year.
