My goal is to grow as an FX artist and be able to work on stunning feature films.

When I was around 15 years old I was not enjoying High School as I should be. I dropped out before graduation to attend a study in Utrecht based around media & design. The study introduced me towards different types of design where I quickly discovered my love for vfx and film. This also increased through the years thanks to multiple internships in The Netherlands. Supporting me with challenges so I could expand my portfolio, finally resulting in my application for the Netherlands Film Academy.
