BIO

My love for picture books and children's literature in general originated and grew by being a critic for the newspaper De Morgen for about 13 years.
I started my professional career at the Beursschouwburg and BRONKS where I worked as a theatre pedagogue and dramaturge. 

Later, I helped to start up and develop the ART BASICS for CHILDREN (ABC) art education lab. After that I worked as an editor for Brussels Deze Week (now BRUZZ) where I was mainly responsible for the children's newspaper "Zazie".
In recent years, I have been working part-time as a project coordinator for the organisation MUS-E Belgium.

TIPTOE Print officially started in the summer of 2018, the first books appeared just under a year later.
