I’m a freelance journalist from the Netherlands, currently based in Oklahoma (US). Previously, I have worked in Paris and London in various roles; shifts in newsrooms, sold my own stories, worked alongside foreign correspondents, had various fixer-roles, and I’ve done research for documentaries and newspapers. I also spent a lot of my time in ‘meta-journalism’ to help news organisations progress in their journalism. My favourite subject is Public Health, but I'm open to working on any type of news.
Produced for Living.it
In a city often considered the epicentre of culinary excellence, it is surprising that the specialty coffee business only took off a few years ago in Paris. I produced this story for Euronews' luxury vertical living.it.
Produced for Euronews
I produced a series of 360 videos for Euronews - This one is about intertwined villages between the Netherlands and Belgium, where the borders are so complex they go through houses, streets, the supermarket, and even straight through the council office.
Produced for Trouw
This story is about the desire of migrants to reach the United Kingdom. It's a success story of a migrant that managed to set up a life and a business in the UK after arriving through Calais.
Produced for NOS
I worked as a fixer for the Dutch public broadcaster NOS to produce a 2-minute TV story on the recent abortion ban in Oklahoma. Our goal was to explain what options Oklahomans who seek abortion have left. In this role, I was responsible for arranging interviews with people close to the women affected by the ban and getting acces to (closed down) abortion clinics to film.
Produced for Niemanlab
I wrote the story of the upcoming start-up Brut — think a French version of NowThis — for Niemanlab. It has had success reaching a younger demographic through social media.
I produced this video for Brut, interviewed a Syrian women who left her home country before the civil war started and aims to remember and show Syria's pre-war beauty through social media.
