Bio
I started kiteboarding in 2007, and was hooked as soon as I had the kite in my hand.
After 2 years of kiting I started teaching as a kitesurf instructor at Kitemobile in the north of the Netherlands. I was there every summer, to teach and of course to have fun on the water. In my third year of kitesurfing I finished high school, and got 5th place in the Dutch championships, after this I decided to go traveling and dedicate my life to kiteboarding.
I went to a few places in the world to teach kitesurfing and support my passion. After winning the Redbull boven N.A.P. in 2012 I went to Capetown for the Redbull King of the Air. I managed to get a podium in this event and from that moment my professional career took off.
At the moment I am traveling the world to produce video and photo content that you will see on this page.
