Dutchie in Canada the Netherlands
Well that explains the name, right? Though to be fair, the Dutch even have a prince going by Maurits. Just so you know it’s legit.
The Start
My creative journey started with studying ‘Media & Design’ with a final specialization in graphic design. During the first years of my studies I took advantage of the opportunity to do several internships covering various types of media. Those experiences include working at a recording studio in Amsterdam, running the video production for a music school in Coventry (UK), designing websites for a team of web developers, and being a graphic designer at a creative agency.
The relationships I built and projects I became a part of over the years allowed me to go freelance full time when I finished my studies.
The Move
In 2013, I moved to beautiful British Columbia. The adventure started in Kelowna and I stayed in the Okanagan for over eight years. I took on a role as a Senior Designer at a marketing agency centrally located in Kelowna.
The Future
So then 2020 happened… it changed the world drastically and made me decide to move back to the motherland, to be closer to Dutch friends and family.
It’s been quite the ride but if there’s one thing that this pandemic taught us then it’s that we can be creative and in touch anywhere on the planet!
