Next to her education she works independently and with other student artists on various art and graphic projects in and around Amsterdam.
In 2002 she graduates and starts her career as a Graphic Designer where she works for agencies as Ogilvy and Dawn and makes award-winning work for clients as BP and Maandag. Beside her work as a Graphic Designer she keeps painting and drawing and takes various studies in art and photography. Later she attends the Junior Academy for Art Direction, where she graduates in 2008 with a gold award for most promising talent of the year.
