About me

Background

I grew up in the performing arts, starting my career as a dancer and developing within an environment that fostered creativity and innovation. This foundation shaped my approach as a professional and enabled me to build expertise across event planning, film and television production, entertainment, sponsorship and marketing, and branding.

Over the years, I’ve contributed to production teams for some of the world’s most prestigious events — including the Olympic and Paralympic Games, the US Super Bowl, the Academy Awards, the European Games, the Islamic Solidarity Games, major film festivals, National Day celebrations, reality television shows, car launches, and fashion shows.

Fluent in Afrikaans, Dutch, and English, proficient in Greek, and with working knowledge of Russian and Azerbaijani, I bring a global perspective to every project. I thrive on the full creative process — from artistic conception and performance design to logistical planning and execution. Known for being goal-oriented and detail-focused, I’m dedicated to ensuring every production is delivered seamlessly and exceeds client expectations.

My Expertise

  • Skilled at translating design concepts into practical, executable realities.
  • Adept at organizing, scheduling, and overseeing all aspects of production.
  • Proven ability to deliver successful events, from conception to execution.
  • Adeptly handle transportation, storage, and hospitality with efficiency and precision.
  • Possess strong budgeting skills to ensure projects stay on track.
