trackrecord
I worked as a cameraman/editor at Feyenoord Rotterdam for about four years. In essence, that was my film school, where I had to make TV for ESPN every day, and I was able to participate in a few special documentaries such as El Gladiador (2021) and Captain (2023).

Apart from my work in the Sports world, I also collaborated as a cinematographer on 3Lab TV pilots of both Bittersweet (2022, AVROTROS) and Cum Laude (2022, BNNVARA). Also several short features such as Benauwd (2021, selected for the Bratislava International Film Festival) and Redemption (2022, selected for Eko International Film Festival Lagos and NewFilmmakers New York Festival).
