About me

Hailing from Belgium and now based in the UK, I began my journey in the animation & VFX industry as a 3D Lighting and Compositing artist. Contributing to projects like Thor: Love and Thunder, School for Good and Evil, and TV series like Lego City: No Limits and Paddington has been incredibly rewarding. Since then, I've moved from the department of post-production to pre-production.

Alongside my technical roles, I've explored my passion for storytelling through creative writing and screenwriting, particularly in the Fantasy/Sci-Fi genre for adult animation. Besides writing, I enjoy travelling, tending to plants, gaming and photography.

 

Whether it's writing or directing films or TV-series, I strive to bring a different perspective and voice to content creation and screenwriting. I believe it's important to address present topics and give voice to those who are underrepresented, to keep what's on the screen a reflection of who we are as people.

Short Film ScreenCraft 2024

“The writer does a lot of great visual writing which works well for this type of intricate animation. It
really puts you in the setting of the destructive desert and then this beautiful and lush oasis. The
relationship between the knight and the fox is also sweet and well developed."

New Media Festival 2024

"Oasis is an engaging short that tackles themes of greed, rebirth, humanity, and friendship. Despite having no concrete dialogue and not having much time for its story, the
storyline presented is effective and steadily paced."

Big Break Screenwriting Contest 2024

"Solar is an ambitious project that benefits from its sprawling world and the interesting politics that
populate it.  T
he writer does an excellent job of
describing the setting and creating images of what the plant people look like and what their trials
and tribulations have been."
