I have worked across various disciplines within the Dutch entertainment industry.
and have built a versatile career: from content development, commissioning, production, marketing, and distribution to talent representation. In 2008, I founded my own talent agency: nummer19 management.
There, I had the privilege of working both nationally and internationally with leading actors and directors such as Halina Reijn, Paula van der Oest, Sacha Polak, Carice van Houten, Nasrdin Dchar, Marwan Kenzari, Katja Herbers, and Jeroen Spitzenberger. Within a short period, nummer19 became one of the most prominent management agencies in the Benelux.
In 2020, I transitioned to Netflix, taking on the role of the first local content executive for the Benelux. As Director of Content Acquisitions, I was responsible for acquiring and co-producing content in the Benelux and the Nordics. With a focus on quality and originality, I contributed to the growth of high-caliber and successful productions in these regions.
I have been named one of the most influential people in the Dutch media four times by Broadcast Magazine and am an alumnus of Inside Pictures, the National Film & Television School's (UK) prestigious business and leadership program aimed at executives in the film and TV industry.
Today, I use my experience and knowledge as a creative producer, talent coach and media consultant. I help producers, projects and talent grow through strategic and creative support and a keen eye for what a story, production or career needs to be successful.
