Designer, developer, and photographer based in Rotterdam. I create
digital spaces that work for real people and document the world as
I see it through photography.

[/] About Me
I never planned to end up here. Architecture was my starting
point I got my Master's and it shaped everything that
followed. Those years taught me more than just architecture; they
cultivated my unique approach to design and a sense
of taste that I apply to everything I touch. Whether it is
coding a website, designing a poster, or building a plinth for
a designer store, that architectural thinking influences how I
frame problems and create solutions. The principles of
proportion, balance, and user experience translate
surprisingly well across disciplines.
[+] Rotterdam & Finding My Place
Rotterdam became home almost by accident. While working at
architecture firms here, I taught myself to code during covid,
,evenings and weekends. What started as small curiosity has quickly
became an obsession. I have always had trouble sticking to just
one creative outlet I've built film sets, made light
installations, self-published travel photography zines, and lately
I've been litrally knee-deep in recycled plastic experiments. The
common thread? I love making things that serve a purpose.
[+] Collaboration
Working with others brings out my best work. The
collaborations with MaMA and other Rotterdam cultural spots
have been some of my most rewarding projects. I don't approach
websites as just code or aesthetics I bring my past learnings and unique
mindset of creating spaces people can intuitively navigate.
Nothing makes me happier than watching someone use something
I have built without needing instructions.
[+] Photography
Photography keeps me honest. It forces me to look at the world
as it is, not how I wish it was. When I'm not in front of a
screen, you will find me walking or riding with my camera, trying to
capture moments that tell a story. I am still figuring things
out, still learning, and still looking for projects that
matter. Rotterdam is home base, but I'll go wherever
interesting problems need solving.
[~] How I Work
I focus on understanding the true goals before starting any
project. My approach is methodical, ensuring a clear strategy
upfront to avoid wasting time later. I ask tough questions to
uncover potential issues early, preventing failures that could
arise from overlooked assumptions.
With a diverse background in architecture, photography, and
coding, I bring a broad perspective to problem-solving. This
range allows me to approach challenges from unique angles,
drawing from multiple disciplines for innovative solutions.
I'm direct in my feedback because I prioritise outcomes over
politeness. If something isn't working, I'd rather address it
immediately. My technical expertise ensures I build
functional, reliable solutions, not just visually appealing
ones.
I prototype quickly and test early. Showing unfinished work
fosters better collaboration and faster iterations, so we can
move forward without getting stuck in perfectionism. I value
efficient communication, preferring quick, focused
conversations over long email chains.
I know my limits and collaborate with specialists when needed,
but what I offer is a combination of cross-disciplinary
insight, technical precision, and a commitment to creating
practical, effective solutions.
