Ik ben een documentairemaker gevestigd in Utrecht, Nederland (geb. 1993). Mijn films zijn scènegedreven, observerende documentaires met een sterk persoonlijk perspectief. Ik voel me aangetrokken tot de donkere kanten van de menselijke ervaring en onderzoek thema’s als trauma, innerlijk conflict en psychisch lijden.
In mijn camerawerk geef ik de voorkeur aan zorgvuldig gecomponeerde tableau’s of juist intuïtief en dynamisch camerawerk, waarbij ik de lichaamstaal van een personage van dichtbij volg.

I am a documentary filmmaker based in Utrecht, The Netherlands (b. 1993). My films are scene-based, observational documentaries with a strong personal angle. I am often drawn to the darker side of human experience, exploring themes like trauma, inner conflict and psychological distress. In my cinematography I prefer either carefully composed tableau vivants or intuitive, dynamic camerawork, following the body language of a character closely.
