Bio

One long name. 2 passports. 4 languages.
Half Dutch, Half American, I’ve traversed Europe and the USA, spending a decade in Berlin where I founded an art gallery, performed live visuals and concepted immersive museum exhibits and events. 

Transitioning to creative lead of Moment Factory’s New York office, I directed various location based experiences for Coachella, Moynihan Train Hall and Kith while mentoring at NewInc, the New Museum’s incubator for innovation and technology. 

As the VP of Design and Creative Services at Sphere, I led the in-house creative studio through years of innovation, brand building, creative development, experience design and product development.
Launched the venue with award-winning content slate for the Exosphere, working with Fortune 100 brands and curating international artists such as Refik Anadol and Tristan Eaton. 

I have since founded Atelier NVSVY,  my creative consultancy, working with leading studios and brands on strategy, art curation, innovation, creative direction and experiential mega projects. 

Career Highlights

Vision

I collaborated with director Johan Kramer to make this short film, showing my world of inspiration and the process behind making my creative vision come to life. 

My mother tells this story, of when I was a child and I asked the question “What if the world around us is one big theatre set and we’re all actors inside of it?” 

To this day, that question is the overarching through-line in every project - how can we make an experience feel as real as the world around us and get audiences to play an active role in this world.
