Designer, researcher and connector based in Eindhoven. Activating creative synergies and ecosystems at Fontys. 🙂

 

Welcome to my www

 

This www reflects my work and personality. I hope you find it sassy, laid back, and yet inspiring, as I like to think I am! Enjoy! 🙂

Curiosity for the world led me to globe-trot for a few years during my 20s, first as a student, and later on as a young designer. My stops after Portugal were Belgium, Czech Republic, France and since 2007 the Netherlands.

I love meeting new cultures, and I am passionate about creating experiences and interventions that matter and contribute to a greater good.

 

Where I stand.

 

My interventions depart from the belief that the transformative qualities of the arts and creative industries can be enablers of well-being, resilience and engagement communities. I use my design and research craftsmanship to address challenges on a societal and systemic level.

 My experiences as a creative and a leader include the cultural sector, the creative industries, business and academia. In my work, I prioritise the nurturing of a healthy balance between the people I work with, the processes we set in place and the products and interventions we create.
