My Work
Keep filming
2022
Shot in the Comedy Café, this comedy horror short is about a small witch coven in Amsterdam. It was written, shot and edited in 48 hours. I wrote and directed this for the 48 Hour Film Project Amsterdam x Imagine. Our team My Dog Albert won the audience award and was selected for the Amsterdam Student Film Festival in Kriterion.
Stand-up comedy

I started doing stand-up comedy back in 2016. Since then, I've been performing in both Dutch and English, in the Netherlands and abroad, such as at the Boom Chicago Comedy Festival.
BSc Neuroscience,
MBA Leadership & Change Management
2015-2019
I graduated with a degree in Neuroscience (UvA), with a focus on Social Psychology. I then got my MBA in Leadership & Change Management (VU). From 2019 - 2022 I worked at the Ministery of Economic Affairs & Climate Policy. I currently work at the Netherlands Brain foundation, mostly on Sports & Exercise projects.

In 2021 I started presenting/moderting events for the Ministry of Economic Affairs & Climate Policy, such as the CES 2021 Netherlands Kick-off and the Start-up in Residence DemoDay.
The Fringe

You're not a real stand-up comedian unless you've had your own show at the Fringe in Edinburgh, right?
Filmmaking Portfolio

I studied at the Scenariovakschool (Screenwriting school) in Amsterdam from 2022 - 2023. I wrote and directed my first short, Keep Filming, and started working in a comedy writer's room organised by Scriptbank. We're currently working together on a comedy/drama series and I'm also working on two shorts.

Bio
As a Dutch/Scottish presenter/moderator, stand-up comedian and filmmaker, I thrive on learning new things and being challenged. My passion for storytelling and my love for both science and social justice are reflected in my work. Whether I'm presenting or moderating an event, writing a screenplay, or performing stand-up comedy, I bring my unique perspective, critical thinking, creativity, and empathy to everything I do.
I believe that the key to great storytelling is connecting with the audience on an emotional level, and I strive to achieve that with every project.
