ABOUT

BIOGRAPHY

BIOGRAPHY

In my work as a documentary filmmaker, I shed light on social issues from a personal, human perspective. What is so beautiful about my profession is that you can immerse yourself in the skin of another person and convey stories from a previously unknown world to a wide audience.

I make both independent films and productions for organizations and campaigns. I have experience with directing, photography, editing and research. When I am the one fiming, I usually work with my FX9 Sony camera set. My studio is based in the center of Amsterdam.
