Made films for a few years. Was an extra in Worst Case Scenario. Special FX at Horizonica and also played radical. Won the jury's encouragement prize in 2008 with my self-made short film 'Te Laat' at DeltaShorts, part of the Film by the Sea festival in Vlissingen. Then selected again in the same competition with 'Weer Te Laat'. A year later 'Lipstick' finished third in the audience award in the same competition. That year I also won the scenario masterclass by Chiem van Houweninge. Now busy with pre-production of this film, called 'TRAUMA'. The premiere will take place in 2012 during the Film by the Sea festival in Vlissingen. Also in 2012 I directed the film Gruis, by Bjorn van Iersel. Studied Theatre, Film and Television Studies at the University of Utrecht for a while. Student at the NARAFI film school in Brussels, started in September 2009.
