I illustrate, animate, snack, draw, sew, paint, design and procrastinate doing my taxes.
While I work with a variety of materials and techniques, what always defines my work is its positive, bright vibe that reflects my personality. Be it self initiated or client work, I always strive to create something that will make you, or your audience smile.
After my studies, I worked in television, film, communication agencies and magazines before discovering what I love most: illustration and design. My past experience and skills allow me to implement illustration and graphic design in strategic branding, animation, surfaces and physical products.

What I do
Strategic guidance I help you determine how to use and integrate illustration and/or design effectively to attract and engage your audience.
I thrive in collaborative projects where Illustration and design are not just decorative, but a strategic component of your branding: Applied consistently across physical products, environments and digital platforms.I develop (sets of) illustrations for editorial, digital, commercial and personal applications.
I love to make those illustrations move & wiggle to create engaging assets suitable for social media and other digital platforms.
Production support: When needed, I handle the full production process and communicate with (grumpy) printers to ensure that your illustrated products are delivered exactly as envisioned. Without the hassle.

My tools
The full Adobe Creative Suite is a big part of my daily workflow: InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects and XD regularly run on my computer at the same time (bless it’s little hard drive).
All my illustrations are created digitally (in Adobe Fresco, Illustrator and/or Photoshop), so every detail can be refined whenever needed.
If clients need editable templates, I’m happy to deliver them in an editable format like Canva or Adobe XD. To ensure they can work with the files easily and independently.
I’m currently expanding my skills into Figma (UI) and Rive (animation) to create interactive interfaces and elements. Great fun!
I’m a paper planner girl. But also use various planner tools like Asana, Trello or Monday to keep track and update my clients on their projects’ progress.
