Education
2014-2020
Bachelor,
Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences
Communication & Multimedia Design is a design bachelor programme, focused on interactive digital products and services. It’s students design and develop interactive digital solutions by putting user needs at the centre of the process. To achieve this, we start with researching user needs and/or problems and then generate ideas and solutions, which are incrementally fine-tuned by using preliminary versions of the end product (prototypes).

As an exchange student at RMIT University Melbourne, Australia I followed multiple design courses to further extend my skills and knowledge in this field of practice. After my wonderful time in Melbourne, I moved to Sydney to work and ended up traveling to New Zealand and exploring the East Coast of Australia.

A producer is the pivotal figure in a film production, maintaining a business perspective on the many facets of film.
