Bio

Moving from Belgium to different countries has granted me insight into many societies and people, and the stories they carry. My ability to extract experiences with words, no matter who sits across, is a blessing I will embrace for a lifetime. But the price of pursuing this nomadic lifestyle comes at the cost of never being in one place for long. So my screenplays became my home, to populate with characters who become family, experiences that become scenes and imaginations that become plot points.

These proficiencies led to producing and understanding many stages of the Film & TV pipelines as I have worked on numerous projects. Each unique and adding to a foundation of the storytelling process. I’m excited about the stories and screenplays I’m working on, because I believe storytelling is what drives emotion. With words and numbers. With scripts and budgets.

Movies move us. So let’s move some movies.
