I am an Amsterdam based freelance designer, born in 1972 in Ede, the Netherlands. Graduated in 1999  from the fashion Design Academie ARTEZ in Arnhem.

 

Shortly after graduation I started as a women's wear designer at high end fashion label The People of the Labyrinths.  All of their collections are made by hand and incompany. There I developed a huge love for texture, unique materials, craftsmanship and special personal items. 

 

Since 2003 I have been working as an independent allround fashion designer: I design women, men & kids collections, I make tech packs, colourcards, moodboards, collectionbooks and graphics. 

I worked with several Companies such as:

​

Tumble 'n dry, Noppies, Shiwi, Lee Jeans, Gaastra, Björn Borg, Sissy Boy,

V&D,HEMA,Hunkemöller etc.

 

I designed a lot of sportswear  (Tennis, workout- and runcollections,) as well as denim related and lifestyle collections, accessories and outerwear.

Besides fashion I have a huge love for photography.
