My two main interests are 1) making food systems and value chains more sustainable, healthy and fair and 2) creative and visual expression through illustrations, photography and writing.
On my website you will see how I try to combine these two interests of mine. I write about, make photos of, and illustrate situations that are, in my opinion, important to make the world we live in a better place. These could be big things, such as research on food value chains, child labour or gender issues. Or small things, such as funny daily scenes that make me smile. This website mainly serves as a spot where I can bring my ideas and creations together. If you would like to get in touch with me, feel free to send me an e-mail (see link below).
Illustrations
When I was younger, I used to draw and paint a lot. Since I started studying I’m not illustrating that much anymore, but sometimes I pick up my pencil. Also, I taught myself to edit sketches on the computer. I don’t only illustrate cute images, but I also try to communicate (difficult) information through my drawings. I will add more drawings soon.
Photos
When photographing, I try to create visually and graphically satisfying images. I also like to photograph daily scenes with people or animals, because they make a picture more lively. Take a look at my gallery if you like :)
