Teacher things


Some things you don't learn in school (unless you are the teacher)

Many professionals want to become teachers. It's hard to get in. Jobs are in limited supply, and even award winning top managers get turned down for the job. I'm crazy privileged I get to do this! And what's even crazier is I got to do it at such a young age my students mistook me for one of their own. Perhaps this misunderstanding led to me to understanding them better. Perhaps that led me to doing anything for them, and to teach them in ways I could only dream of when I was a student myself. These projects below are meant to inspire my fellow teachers. Because sometimes not knowing is more interesting than knowing it all ...

Agency things


Ad agencies are art schools with money

I owe a great deal of what I'm able to give these days, to my time in Ad land. Not just the people that mentored me, but also my fellow dreamers. I worked and dreamed alongside some of our nation's finest creative minds, and I managed to make cool, creative projects for brands I (mostly) loved. I really miss those days. But the great thing is, I no longer have to impress creative directors and recruiters. My website is visited more by students than professionals anyway. So, I took this opportunity to not only show you my old work, but use it as a learning opportunity.

student things


When limits weren't limitations

In school nothing could stop us. No budget restrictions, no legal departments, and no "make the logo bigger". Only the idea and the work. Imperfect, raw and ambitious.


๐Ÿ’ธ Can you occupy WallStreet.com?

๐Ÿด Pausing a tv chef? But how?

Just ask him with words coming out of your voice.
voice commands for Dagelijkse Kost

When not grinding I hustle.

'Hustling' is an ugly word, in my opinion. But I do like helping people with my ideas, words, or designs. And I do make things for myself too.
