about me
Film fascinates me, it tickles. It makes me curious, how the camera works with me, how it can develop a character just by being present.
In 2009 I participated in the 48-hour film 'Regenmakers' by Ruut van der Beele (Breda), for which I received the Best Actress award.
This, in combination with the theater tour 'Donkey God and the bonus sacrement' by the Blooming Virgins, inspired me to immerse myself in acting using the Meisner method after four years of cabaret at the Koningstheaterakademie. Acting truthfully in imagined circumstances.
In 2011 I again won the prize for Best Actress at the 48-hour film festival in Amsterdam with the film 'Love eventually' by Sem Voortman.
I also graduated in 2011 from the Paul Dekker Acting Studio, where the Meisner method is used.

Besides film, I like to work in the theater as an actress, singer and maker.
