As one of the few screenwriters in the south of the Netherlands, I am actively writing mainly short films. I have gained experience in the genres: horror, silent film, thriller, drama, children's film and mockumentary. Directors and co-writers appreciate the pleasant collaboration, my innovative and creative ideas and the way I translate these into a screenplay.
In addition, I have experience in scouting and (assistant) managing locations.
