With Game Tailors it’s our mission to make playful learning the norm. If you are interested in serious gaming or gamification, I’d love to connect! 🎮My storyOver 16 years experience in the gaming industry I've learned what it takes to grow from startup to 65 people. In the beginning of my career I was a multimedia designer at a few companies and even before Gamebasics was founded in 2004 I worked on the game OSM. During that time I created the unique OSM look & feel including the mascotte called ‘Doerak’. As an entrepreneur I have founded Orange Books in 2010 to bring beautiful picture books for children to the iPad. Making them interactive and more immersive. I have a solid understanding of Agile SCRUM and have been a Product Owner for 2 years. In 2016 I became a member of the Management Team of Gamebasics. I was responsible for the art and (ux-)design department. At the end of 2020 I left the company as a Chief Design Officer (CDO).Nowadays, I use my knowledge and experience to create fun games, together with my team at Game Tailors. We try to make the world a better place with our games.
