Coaching and Mentoring
As a coach, I closely collaborate with writers, creative teams and producers, at all stages, from development to realization. My approach is tailored entirely to your individual needs.
I assist creators in finding their unique style and personal development. Additionally, I offer tailored coaching and expert advice for film and cultural projects.
Consultancy (Funding) Applications
As an advisor, I provide expert and well-founded advice on fund applications for film projects, television dramas, and cultural projects with national and international funds.
Thanks to my extensive work experience at the Netherlands Film Fund, the Dutch Media Fund, and Eurimages, I understand how applications are evaluated. Therefore, I am the ideal person to help improve your application, thereby increasing your chances of financing and realization.
'Over the past years, I have worked with you in various places with so much pleasure. You have meant a lot to the Dutch film industry. It is gratifying that you bring all that knowledge and use it to support the development and production process of films and series.'
Marleen Slot, producer Viking Film
Chairing and Moderation
As an experienced chairperson, I steer debates in the right direction, such as during advisory committee meetings or panel discussions.
As a moderator, I make sure there is a well-rounded and smooth running of the events and conferences, whilst maintaining a tight schedule.
Sparring
As a critical, analytical, and creative thinker, I am a valuable sparring partner for organizations, writers, directors, and producers. With my extensive experience and broad network, I assist in finding solutions to challenges within your field.
'You have been a positively critical partner throughout my entire career, with an enormous passion for beautiful productions and an untamable drive to make people perform at their highest possible level.'

Peer Supervision
As a facilitator of peer supervision groups, I encourage professionals to help each other in a safe environment and with mutual respect, addressing various issues they encounter within their field.
Maker's Punch Card (Multi strip card)
Especially for creators (writers, directors, and producers), I offer a strip card (at a special rate) for discussions on artistic and personal development. With my extensive experience with talent development and coaching I assist you in finding your unique path in the industry.
Questions may involve your positioning (what is your unique talent) or the direction you wish to take. For example, I can review a project or provide insight during the editing phase.
What is your unique talent or
the direction you wish to take?
I would like to share my knowledge and experience with you.
Previous Matches
I have worked with a wide range of clients, which I found stimulating and inspiring. It helps me stay open-minded. The diversity in projects also makes my work challenging and varied, as each specific task brings its own set of challenges and dynamics.
