I am a writer and journalist, and my work has been published in outlets such as Vrij Nederland, De Groene Amsterdammer, and HP/De Tijd. In 2012, I won the Audience Award for the A.L. Snijders Prize for my story 'Jaapies huis'. In 2020, I went undercover as a journalist on the livestream platform Twitch to investigate the male gaze online. My experiences here formed the basis for my debut novel 'Zuigertje' and the documentary 'Amstergwen', which will be airing on NPO3 on August 15th.
