  • Description

    Hiya!

    I've been in international environments through my work as a video game (level) designer for a couple years now. I've lived in the Netherlands and Germany and currently reside in Finland :)

    I'm a big fan of bouldering, cycling and since about a year I'm dabbling with photography a lot, which is my newest hyper fixation. Generally speaking I'm a creative person, with a knack for details and design, I enjoy different perspectives, learning new things and being surprised by what the world has to offer.

  • More details about your skills

    I'm a creative person, with a knack for details, design and aesthetics. I have a formal background in video game design which I have a couple of years of experience with. I'm technically apt with the entire office suite, various game engines, time management software, and have basic skills with Photoshop and Lightroom through my hobby as a photographer.

    I've done a wide variety of side jobs / smaller jobs over the years; at a carwash, a bakery, a fish traiteur, in customer service, in call centers and as a waiter, to name a few.

    I don't shy away from working whether indoors or outdoors, I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty and generally speaking I'm an easy going, social and friendly person that makes friends easily, is serious when the situation requires, and an excellent communicator and facilitator.

  • What else ...

    With my new found passion for photography I've also rekindled my love for the outdoors. Being Dutch I've always been a big cyclist, but I'm also keen on (smaller) hikes, the outdoors, pretty places in general and the bustling vibes of some cities too. I'm an avid reader, I enjoy watching a movie or series and appreciate spending time with friends - whether over a meal, a drink or with some board games and banter.

    I love getting to know others and hearing about their experiences, perspectives and journeys through life in one form or another. I love learning about different cultures and how that shapes who we are, as well as the stories of our lives.

    Big fan of games, generally up for doing anything, although I do appreciate my alone time as well. I'm a sociable person, but sometimes I need to wind down - whether through editing some photos, playing some games or something else.
