Dutch, Autodidact (1981)
What all started as hobbies evolved and became a profession, where I combine my passions for brokerage, design & trading and recently started my business in August 2025, where I specialize in yacht sales & purchase and product & art licensing.
Where at the moment I also provide freelance services.
Born in Bolsward, a small city in Friesland the northern watersport region of the Netherlands, son of a seafarer/Chief engineer, a background that instilled in me a deep connection to the water and passion for boats & ships and after experiencing the magic of living on a houseboat in The Netherlands, I now live on a tiny boat in the South of France.
My creative journey started in 1997 as a graffiti artist, which led me to self-educate through the years in graphic design, illustration, calligraphy, painting, watch creating, yacht & product design.
From a young age I have a passion for selling passion products where trading vintage watches & custom made watches in the last few years before shifting to yacht brokerage.
