I am a graduate product design student from Bournemouth University in the UK.

Being a Dutch Brit (or a British Dutchman), and growing up in 6 different countries has exposed me to multiple cultures and various groups of people. This has broadened my perspective and understandings of the world, allowing me to adapt easily to new situations. Tackling problems and creating solutions has always been fascinating to me and I love learning new skills and mastering them quickly.

I’m passionate about design that can positively impact sustainability and clean living in the future while providing great utility and a fun user experience. I am particularly interested in the intersection between design for the circular economy and exploring how we can redesign our most loved products to use new and exciting biomaterials, to make sure that when they have reached their end of life, they can be returned safely to the earth to begin again as something new.
