...and I am a musicalartist, singer and actress. Growing up in the Netherlands I developed a passion for music and dance at an early age. I started dancing when I was just four years old, going from classical ballet to jazz and ballroom. When I was eight, I started singing in a church choir and later took private singing lessons, and at nine years old I started taking piano lessons. At the age of fourteen I started preparatory training at the MusicAll-Factory in Tilburg (Netherlands) and developed my skills as a triple threat student very quickly. As a big theater fan it was the ultimate goal to combine my three biggest passions in one genre: Musical Theater. In 2006 I was accepted to the Fontys Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Dance Academy to study Musical Theater. During my final year in 2009, I joined the national tour of MAMMA MIA!Netherlands as Ensemble/cover Lisa. Half way through the contract I graduated and was part of the National TV-Talentshow OP ZOEK NAAR MARY POPPINS produced by Avro and Stage Entertainment Netherlands. Together with ten other women I competed for the lead in Disneys and Cameron Mackintosh's 'Mary Poppins'. As the youngest candidate I had to leave the competition after five live shows finishing sixth, and continued my run with Mamma Mia. In the fall of 2010 I got the chance to play my first lead as Mother in the musical KRUIMELTJE. This typical Dutch show played at the Efteling Theater and in 2011 we went on tour. A year later I got to be part of the cast of Disneys THE LITTLE MERMAID as a swing. My first job abroad happened in 2013 when I got to be one of the lead singers in SHOW ME at the Friedrichstadt-Palast in Berlin. A year later I was part of the Austrian cast of MAMMA MIA! Vienna as a swing/cover Lisa. In 2015 I moved to Stuttgart to join the cast of Disneys TARZAN as ensemble/cover Kala and in 2016 I got to play in ROCKY as swing/cover Adrian. After six years of long run productions I wanted to spent more time at home, in the meantime I had moved from Amsterdam to Berlin, and I got the chance to play Anita in WEST SIDE STORY at the Staatsoper Hannover. During the summer of 2018 I played in two productions at the Luisenburg Festspiele in Wunsiedel: DAS DSCHUNGELBUCH as Raschka (mother wolf) and MY FAIR LADY as Ensemble. In the fall of that year I moved back to Stuttgart to be part of the German premiere cast of ANASTASIA as Tsarina/cover Countess Lily.
