About Me

I’m a passionate allround graphic designer (born in 1976) with post-graduate
diploma and a long-standing experience in graphic design and agency work.

I have a high level of proficiency in corporate design, brand design and corporate publishing with a
critical view on details but also focusing on new media solutions. Always looking for new challenges,
I focus on the clients needs and try to find the best visual and conceptual solutions within young
and fresh ideas (on- and offline). I am also available for freelance projects.

Since 2013 I live and work in Amsterdam.
