digital transformation designer

Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences Netherlands

I used to dream of being a genetic engineer. Ended up with a BA in Business Management. After working in advertising, PR, and entertainment; I retrained as a fashion designer and had an MA degree in the Netherlands. Behind the scenes, I am a fool with tools, who has a chaotic intellectual and artistic curiosity in different fields.
