With more than 20 years of experience within startups, scaleups and corporates at BinckBank (now part of Saxo Bank) and NN IP (now part of Goldman Sachs AM), among others, I have gained experience in various front office positions. I have been interested in media and entertainment since my student days and I have experience organizing events, music production for documentaries and electronic music, artist interviews and social media content for Buma Cultuur, and over 7 years of experience in the field of film financing, fundraising and the making marketing collateral with a relevant (inter)national network and guiding and making introductions to potential investors.

As a Portfolio Manager and RFP Analyst at NN IP I have been directly involved in complex client portfolios, helping to strengthen the sales pipeline with successful tenders. The biggest deal at the time was a €70 billion ABS strategy under my direct responsibility.

Over the past decade I have advised various startups and scale-ups on social, sustainable and financial matters and have been actively involved in several award-winning startups. In addition, I have sourced renewable energy and agritech projects, SaaS and MedTech startups. As an investment writer I contributed to the analysis of various investment proposals. As an alumni of Startup-In-Residence, Founder Institute London – Silicon Valley cohort, and recently Antler Amsterdam, I also bring experience with start-ups focused on social entrepreneurship and I like to combine this with my love for film and music.

I have a warm heart for the entertainment sector and specifically fiction film projects and am therefore particularly interested in contributing to the further advancement of innovative film concepts to bring stories to a wider audience on different formats in word and image.
