Portfolio
Students of the Utrecht School of Arts have the opportunity to do an internship in their third year. To find a fun, informative and valuable internship I have compiled this portfolio.
On this site I have tried to show a representative image of the work I have produced in the past two years.
If you are interested in my portfolio I will gladly make an appointment to discuss my work and motivation. Further questions and commentary are of course welcome.
Scrolling to the right will take you through my portfolio.
