Summary

After enjoying the climate in Spain for almost a decade, I decided it was time to go back to school and follow my dreams.

I graduated with a PBA in digital arts and entertainment at Howest College in Kortrijk. From there on I kept doing what I love most: creating and learning. I worked in feature animation, games and will now also start to teach.

I greatly enjoy video and boardgames, movies, books and cycling.

Some of my clients are: Amai Producties, Oisoi, Mikele.tv, Lobster, Nugbase, Make, Volstok, Beleza Pura, Syntra, Wisefools, Walking the dog
