Building strong brands and immersive digital experiences since 2016. Together with my Creative Collective and solo.

From Bartender to Founder & Creative

I began my journey in the nightlife industry in 2016, starting as a shakergirl and quickly moving into roles in marketing, PR, and content management. After over five years of experience in event management, concepting, and marketing for nightclubs all around the world, I transitioned into the advertising industry. Working with creative agencies in Amsterdam and helping brands in need, while also growing my own company, A-Town Agency, a collective of creative freelancers specializing in digital design and webdesign.

My personal power lies in recognizing the potential and passion in people and bringing together diverse skill sets to deliver exceptional results on all types of creative projects. I’m passionate about collaborating with others and am always inspired by the unique perspectives and talents of my team members. And of course, I do have a set of creative skills of my own…

Digital Designer @ OpenUp / 2023 – now

In January 2023, I joined OpenUp as their first in-house Digital Designer, contributing to their mission of increasing accessibility to mental health resources.

As the sole Digital Designer, I oversee and uphold brand consistency while crafting a wide range of visual assets, including event sales banners and UX/UI elements for digital products and campaigns.

UI / UX Designer @ Wayne Parker Kent / 2020 – 2023

As the sole UI/UX Designer at Wayne Parker Kent, I had a range of responsibilities, such as conducting user research, designing user interfaces, and implementing/deploying webpages and platforms for our clients. Noteworthy accomplishments include creating the online magazine Altijd ALDI for ALDI Nederland and developing the content platform Samsung & You for Samsung Nederland. Additionally, I played a pivotal role in redesigning the current Wayne Parker Kent website, ensuring a smooth experience despite the constraints of the CMS.
