Straight out of highschool, I started working in 1994 at Czar Filmcompany as a production assistant. At their old location on the Keizersgracht, I met many people who inspired me to go on and work in filmbusiness. After seeing so many different professions on set, my main interest became working with camera's.
​
Working as clapper/loader for a short while, I then started out as focus puller. Combining this in the late '90's with operating Steadicam, making my trade as a camera assistant more versatile.
​
With 25 years of experience under my belt I still learn new things on every show I work on. Might it be a feature film, television drama or a commercial shoot. Mostly focusing on running the camera department, operating camera, aerial, underwater and Steadicam
