Bio
Over the past twenty-five years, I have come a long way. I will take you on a whirlwind tour from my adolescence to my adult life, from Limburg to Rotterdam.

Youth Theatre Kaboekie
Youth theatre and a place where every child is welcome, founded by Greta Dubois in Zonhoven in 1982. The start of my artistic development and my second home as a wandering teenager.

I am studying Theatre Studies at Ghent University, with my third year on exchange in Utrecht. I have seen and analyzed many performances. In Hasselt, I am creating my first performance, *Dood in Venetië *.
