I'm a jack of all trades with a passion for art, culture, community and sustainability. I started my academic career studying Arts & Culture (BA), where I developed an interest in what culture is, how people experience it and how one can shape it. I decided to specialise in Political Culture, as I was fascinated by politics and philosophy. From there, I began to focus on environmentalism, which led to an incredible passion for sustainability. This interest continued and led to the decision to study Sustainability Science and Policy (MSc). Throughout this program, I learnt more about environmental law, governance & sustainable business. During my studies I worked various student jobs, ranging from civic rights and social action to sustainability. After graduating I took some time off where I briefly worked in retail. Shortly after, I started my professional career working at a start-up where I worked on enhancing the digital structure of circularity through digital implementations of material and product passports, and other digital tools. Next to that, I had been organising my own initiative, Queer Art Club. Queer Art Club is a place for members of the LGBTQIAP+ community to get creative. My focus right now lies on developing Queer Art Club further, expanding its capacity and making sure more queer people feel at home in Maastricht.I'm keen to connect with other culture makers in Maastricht and beyond, in order to learn from and inspire one another.
