ABOUT ME
I was only six years old, when I first got on stage with the local theatre company in Geel, Belgium. My passion for acting was born, even though I put it momentarily on hold when I went studying in Leuven. After a couple years of working in the educational and social-cultural sector, I took up acting again as a hobby and joined the local theatre company in Pellenberg.
In 2017 it was time to set a new course. I quit my job and worked as a 'household manager' and professional mummy of two for a while. But it soon became clear what direction I wanted to go in. I needed to pursue my passion for acting professionally.
On this page, you will find an overview of my experience in acting, singing and dance as well as the training I had in these fields.
