Biography.
Pieters was born in Maaseik in 1988. He obtained a degree in civil engineering at the XIOS University of Applied Sciences Limburg (a branch of Hasselt University) in 2010. He worked for the Flemish Water Management agency as a district manager and from 2011 to 2015 as a deputy director for land management, the development of industrial estates and the stimulation of inland shipping.
He first became involved in the Lijst Dedecker party and was spokesman and treasurer for the Limburg branch. During the 2009 Belgian regional elections he unsuccessfully stood for the party in the Limburg constituency. However, he later left the party and joined the N-VA citing dissatisfaction with the direction of the party and became active in the N-VA's youth-wing the "Jong N-VA." He subsequently worked as a policy advisor to Geert Bourgeois. In 2012, he was elected as a municipal councilor for the N-VA in Maasmechelen and held this position until 2019. During the 2024 Belgian regional elections he was elected to the Flemish Parliament and designated as a community senator by the N-VA.
