About me
View profile
I’m an internationally working actress based in Copenhagen. 
Born to Dutch and Swiss parents, but raised in Denmark, I grew up multilingual. 
​
I got my BFA Acting at the HKU University of the Arts Utrecht in the Netherlands and went on to study Meisner at William Esper in New York City. 
​
Since then, next to working as an actor in theatre and film, I’ve studied Script Development at the University of Southern Denmark.
